big boys bike advice.
medusa.cascade:
So I've managed to bag a job for September that's about 11 miles away. I've been looking into getting a big boys bike but need some advice. Its pretty hilly, 20% at one point, and the route is single track country lanes for a lot of it. So not smooth tarmac. What would people recommend? Budget is around £750.
Do I get a road bike? Cyclocross? A rigid mountain bike?
I would like something I can stick some slightly more aggressive tyres on for the winter.
I was thinking of a canndale synapse disc 105 which is a bit over budget. Any cheaper alternatives?

I road it today to see what the route was like. Bombing down the hills kicks ass obviously, but inclines where an absolute killer on the bmx.
hugh.:
Get a used CX bike. Check LFGSS
