Hello
Steve from Sydney nice to meet you all.
I had a road bike for about 8 years back in the UK and loved it, had a full 105 groupset (back in the days where the shifters were on the frame my friends) and a Reynolds 501 frame......Did me proud
Now I am once again in the market for a roadbike over in Oz, I basically don't really want to spend more than 1600 bucks australian. I have been looking at the trek 1200 but it's got a Tiagra groupset, is this OK, I lovd the smooth shifting of my 105 racer and I want to make sure the gears are smooth.
Are there any other good quality starting out bikes that feature a 105 groupset for under 1700 in Australia ?
I have seen this and I wonder what you fellas think of this deal, A Diamondback ? I have never heard of it ?

Any other makes I should be looking at with 105 ?
Look forward to your advice.
