I am looking to purchase a new bike on a ride2work scheme so have limited options (upgrading from a hybrid). Looking at the end of season sale there are a couple of options. This include a trek 2.3 105 (1K)..a fuji 1.0 rubaix (900) again mostly 105 or for 1200 quid a BMC SR01 with nearly all ultegra sl components. The BMC obviosuly has upgraded groupset but I cant find out a whole lot about this bike or brand from googling it. I appreciate I need to test em but I just wondered what the general view is of this brand/bike compared tro the others. I am restricted as there are only certain sizes left in the sale. I will be doing around 30-50 miles a day five times a week on relatively flat essex country roads. Thanks Mike

It's worth checking with the shop you will buy from ,if they will offer the sale price as a bike to work sale as many will still charge the full retail price. As to the bike I'd go for the Trek or the BMC for the better groupset because of the mileage you intend doing.
