forty four said:based on stiffness to weight and independent testing in no real order cervelo specialized and scott are the 3 best bikes you can buy currently. steer clear of colnagos pinarellos etc... over priced heavy bikes which sell on name alone.
In my limited experience differences in performance are pretty much irrelevant between the most common brands, and I guess that could be extended to about 40-50 other brands. Regarding stiffness to weight tests etc...well, it depends on which cycling magazines one reads, which in turns depends often (but not always) on where one is from.
For the money I have no doubt the best cycle I can buy first hand is a Canyon SLX. After trying a Canyon CF for 5 months I tend to believe that its simplicity and stiffness would even make me a buyer of the SLX even if I would have unlimited money to spend.
