What new bike...??

[SilverPhoenix]

As much as I love my trusty commuter hybrid, I'm looking into getting a new bike to try and take my cycling up a notch.

So far I've got these three in mind, you'll notice I've decided to stick with flat bars for now;

Planet X London Road - http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CBPXLDNRDAPEXFB/plane...

Boardman Hybrid Team Bike - http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/hybrid-bikes...

Btwin Triban 540 - http://www.decathlon.co.uk/triban-540-flat-bar-roa...

Has anyone got any experience or reviews with any of them? Is there anything else I should look at?

I've been and had a good look at both the B'Twin and the Boardman.

Although, I was impressed with the B'Twin - I think the Boardman slightly edged it for me, especially with the hydraulic disc brakes.

As I live on the south coast, the Planet X will be tricky to view, although I might try and get up to Triathlon Zone in St. Albans. Generally, I've been impressed with the Planet X bikes I've seen. I love the London Road in zesty lime, as above!

I guess the next step is to speak to my boss about C2W schemes.
