The trek 1.2 is a solid entry point into road cycling. My OCR 3 had similar specs, the only difference being the name of the bike... When you do eventually upgrade to a higher specced bike you can keep the trek for training rides and workhorse duties.


This is my workhorse with its original wheels not the mavics... It has served me well and hasn't yet retired



This one is the racer
2012 Helium (Full CF frame), SRAM red (TdF yellow edition) groupset, dura ace carbon pedals, prologo saddle and Fast forward f6R clinchers... To get the bike lighter i've ordered some CF handlebars and stem.




If i had of jumped straight onto the Helium when i first started cycling I don't think i would have appreciated it as much as I do now. Cant wait for crit season!
