If your budget sits at £2000, you can afford something a little more swanky in the road bike department. This price bracket is where bike brands get a little more experimental, creative and downright aero.

But it can be a little confusing as to what you’re looking for. At this level, brands will often have multiple bikes at the same price point, with seemingly very few differences in the spec. These models are more likely to dovetail when it comes to geometry – one will be designed to suit an endurance athlete, and another will maybe be more suited to a time trail cyclist.

It’s also worth looking out for what groupset is on the bike. With these models it’s most likely Shimano 105 (great) or Shimano Ultegra (better than 105) components in play, although some will use SRAM equivalents.

We hope this list of some of the best bikes on the market helps you make the right decision and get onto a beautiful bike ASAP!
