5 top road bikes today

By Hugo Costa


When it comes to achieving a fast time on the road, your choice of bike can be as important as your performance on the day, or the weeks and months of training you do in preparation beforehand. To make sure that your hard work isn't wasted you need the best road bike you can afford. These are 5 top picks. Giant Defy 1. This road bike comes in at just under 1,000 making it ideal for people on a budget who still want a quality product.

Bianchi Oltre Super Record. On the other end of the scale is the super light (just 6.43kg) Bianchi Oltre. But as the weight goes down the price comes up and you can expect to fork out 7,500 for the privilege of riding this pro-level road bike.

Felt F3. The Felt F3 is yours for just under 3,000, a terrific price when you consider the weight of the bike is a little over 7kg. While some bikes with light framesets can suffer from a lack of steering precision, Felt has tackled this problem with a ControlTaper head tube. This is just one of a number of technologically advanced design features that helps Felt produce some of the fastest bikes in the world.

Felt AR5. Felt are the makers of the world's fastest time trial and track bikes, so you know this is a brand name you can trust. This particular bike is a steal at 2,000 and has a carbon fibre frame, excellent handling, and the kind of features you've come to expect from Felt bikes such as Modular Monocoque Construction. This allows Felt to mould individual sections of the frame before bringing them together for complete optimization.

Van Nicholas Aquilo. Unlike a lot of premium road bikes, the Van Nicholas Aquilo has a titanium frame at its core. Built for racing, you can feel the power of this road bike as soon as you start pedalling and you'll be thrilled at how well it steers, making the 3,400 price tag completely justifiable.
