Evans Cycles currently have £1,500 knocked off the £7999.99 RRP of the Scott Addict LTD CD 2009 Road Bike which is nice – i’d bet the parts alone on it are worth more than that!

The Scott Addict LTD CD 2009 Road Bike is one of the most expensive mass produced bikes available on the market – and it’s weight beggars belief – below 14lbs! Add some pedals and bottle cages and it creaps towards 15lbs – but still thats extremely light. Your friends will marvel and crowd round as if it has just appeared from another planet.

Why is this bike such a deal then? Well the parts alone make it fantastic value – the wheels RRP £2,250 – seat £330 – levers around £650 so it all starts to add up.

Riding the bike is an experience. It climbs like it is made from thin air, decends nicely and is surprisingly stable at high speeds. The only negative aspect is that it is a little harsh for the UK’s potholed roads, and do you really want to ride £2k carbon (one smash and they are scrap) wheels around all day – not to mention the tubs which aren’t exactly easy to replace at the road side.

OK, so it’s hardly a bargain, but saving over £2k on a  top end bike isn’t to be sniffed at. We found the Pinarello Dogma Male on offer at TheBikeFactory for just £4,999.99.

**OFFICIAL TEAM SKY REPLICA** DOGMA 60.1 is Pinarello’s great new idea for 2010. The beginning of a new generation of frames that will revolutionize the concept of racing bicycles. DOGMA 60.1 is the first completely asymmetric racing frame. Its asymmetric design is a true innovation in the cycling world and the point of no return for fans of extreme performance. The frame was developed starting from the highly successful Prince, Best Racing Bike of the World (USA) for 2008 and 2009 and Bike of the Year in Italy for 2008 and 2009. The fork, the rear and the basic shapes are derived from this very fortunate frame but with the application of incredible new technologies, the completely asymmetric design, the EPS wrinkle Free System construction process and the material used, the exclusive 60HM1K carbon by Torayca with Nanoalloy that prevents sudden breakage. Last but not least is the exclusive Diamond finish, the worthy topping to an extraordinary project called Dogma 60.1.

Chain Reaction have the BEONE Raw carbon road frame on special offer at the moment for just £595.

The BeOne Raw Carbon Frame 2010′s MONOBOX construction means that our bottom bracket and the chainstays are one piece and not bonded together as in most other frames. As a result, the lowest possible tolerances are achieved. Combined with an OVERSIZED BOTTOM BRACKET, we estimate that this, should result in 100% energy input = 100% forward motion.
