Dawes GIRO 500 Road Bike 2011
When choosing a road bike there are alot of things to take into consideration, the frame size, components, frame material and so on. Our road bikes start from entry level with the sleek Giro 200 right up to the speedy Giro 500 which can be used as a competative racer or a winter training bike.
The Giro 500 needs no introduction and has recieved a new paint job and frame for 2010 aswell as a few more upgrades. Shimano 18 speed Tiagra gears make for a smooth gear change and pedalling, Alex AT450 rims and Vittoria Rubino tyres keep you stuck to the road, FSA stem and short drop handlebars make the ride comfortable and agile together with the Carbon fork which help to soften those bumpy roads.
