Recommend a new bike

[gonte]

Can you recommend a new bike for me ? It will be used for Road and tow paths etc. My current bike is about 15 years old and feels like its made of scaffold tubes. Budget is about £450 and it will be used for keeping fit etc, not interested in hurling myself down a mountain though as at 44 it takes a long time for bones to mend!:-)

Thanks

something like a Giant Talon would be a good bet. to be honest though, anything form the big manufacturers at that sort of price will be a solid and reliable bike.

or a cube maybe?

As above really, all of the well-known brands offer something solid at this point. Having said that though, how good does the new 2011 Hardrock Sport Disc look:



Bang on budget as well..

I really like it, but at the same time it's definitely one to polarise opinion!

I've got one of these on order which hopefully will be here end of next week.

At this budget Halfords Carrera range, especially when sales put a Fury this cheap, are impossible to beat on spec and quality.
