    Hi All,

    Looking at getting a road bike. Bike to work is available to me. Budget is up to €1400.

    Bike to be used mainly for commuting and training.

    I really like the Dolan prefissio with full mudguards that type of setup. I guess they don't do bike to work in UK?

    So looking for some recommendations.

    Thanks guys

    it's not that they're based in the UK which could be the issue - you need to check with your employer if there are any limitations on the way they handle the scheme. some many not allow you to buy from an online retailer, but that's not an inherent limitation of the BTW scheme - some employers will allow it.

    for example, IIRC, my employer has a limitation that the retailer must be a bricks'n'mortar store in ireland (26 counties, i think).

    Thanks for the response. Failing the Dolan option any other recommendations?

    Specialized/cannondale/lapierre? Thanks
