Am I corect in saying the btwin 500 is the best you can get for the lower price range, comes in at £330 @ 10.4 kg without pedals. Can you recommend better for the price, maybe go second hand?
 
So what would you guys do with this budget. With second hand there's no warranty, so looking like first hand. So you reckon that both above bikes are the best bet, is there anything under 10kg?
 
It does look ok but then I am no expert. The Rivelin 2.0 actually looks very nice but only seems to come in a 54cm frame.

I am now looking at the Triban 520 instead of the 500.

The rivelin is also 10.9kg whereas the triban 520 is 9.6kg I think.

If I go for the Rivelin, at 6'' in height I assume I would be a 58cm frame, or how does it work, yes I am clueless at the moment. Would I go in and try the 56cm and 58cm bikes?
