Guys I need a bit of help with buying my next racing bike. I've competed in one triathlon and have 'the bug' so im going to keep training. I have a Giant 'Peloton' 1000 which is really old at this stage, the steel frame says it all! I have been looking around and it seems to me that the cheapest bikes are around the 350…

Guys I need a bit of help with buying my next racing bike. I've competed in one triathlon and have 'the bug' so im going to keep training. I have a Giant 'Peloton' 1000 which is really old at this stage, the steel frame says it all! I have been looking around and it seems to me that the cheapest bikes are around the 350 mark, when you buy online. I'd love to buy a Giant SCR or Trek 1000, but at 550 they're kinda outside my budget, which is more like 350. If I can find a 2nd hand for 250 or 300 id jump at it.....yes, im cheap!! How do people rate the BeOne Briza, http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=14992. I'd get it if I knew if it was going to be decent enough, only looking for very entry level here. Oh, and im a medium height of 5'9".

Thanks
