Thanks Griff500
I have a cycle to work scheme that i have used before and will be using to fund the biggest portion of the cost this might limit me in my options a little?
Not really, unless your employer applies some restriction. Most bike shops support cycle to work, and it makes no difference if it is last years model or next, as long as it is a new bike.
August starts next week, and we are into the silly season. 2019 facelifts are being announced, and dealers will start offloading "old" stock. Its a buyers market. By September you should expect discounts of up to 30% if you're happy to accept a 2019 colour scheme instead of 2020. Shop around, have fun, bargain hard.
