I'm ready to sell my 12-y/o Spec Allez roadie that I use for commuting and upgrade to a more versatile, steel-framed, do-more bike. Will be used to commute to/from work (22km), winter training (60-80km), and 'hopefully' race amateur on next year local CX circuit. Budget is $2K max. So far my options are:
Surly Straggler - http://surlybikes.com/bikes/straggler
Brodie Tiber - http://www.brodiebikes.com/2015/bikes/tiber.php
Any other options you can think of? Short list of wants but:
- stays big enough to accept proper fenders and 38mm tires
- disc brakes
- Shimano 105, SRAM Rival or higher components
