Giant do some nice bikes. I'm looking at either a Cannondale synapse carbon or a Specialized Roubaix

A Specialised Roubaix? Think that ended up as CW Sportive bike of the year.

As I don't race and want comfort those two kind of fit the bill. The synapse is Cannondales version of a Roubaix.

The CW decision ended up as a near thing with the Trek, IIRC.

As previously mentioned, none of Trek, Cannondale, Giant or Specialized float my boat, I'm afraid.

I bought a Roubix recently for £250 quid. It was too big for me so I took the parts off and put them on a Kinesis Racelight frame and sold the Riubix frame (without forks for £100)
