Which is the best frame? 2013 z5 or 2013 Cannondale Synapse.

Just had a bike fit and been advised that my new Wilier XP Izoard is too racey for me and that I should consider a more relaxed geometry. Now recovered from the shock and put the bike up for sale and somewhat wiser for the experience.

Have a budget of £1800 and would like to know which is the better frame out of the 2013 Cannondale Synapse Carbon 5 or a 2013 Felt Z5? Neither seem to be in the shops yet.

Also been advised that the Trek Domane would be a good fit for me but it just doesn't excite. Any other contenders with same geometry?

At help appreciated.

How much 'out' were you?

Did the bike feel ridiculous to you or has the bikefit conclusion taken you completely by surprise?

Cant you get them to get the Wilier to fit you?

Have a look at the Bianchi sportive geo'd bike, can't remember the model name but I had a test ride recently and was rather impressed although I would say it's the racier end of relaxed!

Wilier XP way off for me, we tried a high riser but it just looked like a car crash. The fitter tried everything but in the end it was obvious that I needed a more relaxed geometry. Hence, new bike needed.

Why sell the whole bike? Tonnes of mega deals on frames and your Willier frame set would be very saleable.

The Domane is supposed to be a superb bike, btw. If its good enough for Cancellara...

As a Dale rider I'm duty bound to point at the Synapse.
