Commuter Sirrus

Sirrus £400

Last year's black has given way to 'dream silver', but some things don't change - the Sirrus is still a fast, light bike for swift commutes. Narrow Specialized Flak Jacket tyres are a great compromise between speed and puncture resistance. Available in extra small, and women's specific frame geometry as well. The suspension seatpost gives you a little bit of extra comfort on potholed roads. the combination of a long wheelbase and a long top tube makes this fast but comfortable. And remarkably, the price is still holding at £400.

  

 

    

Sirrus Elite £500

If you can stretch to it, an extra hundred quid pimps your ride substantially. Carbon forks and bars, plus suspension seatpost, takes the edge of the potholes. You still get the puncture resistant tyres. An unobtrusive extra is the adjustable stem, which works with a clever swivelling washer thingybob so is much lighter and less aesthetically cluky than standard versions. all good.

  

 

    

Sirrus Comp £650

Sleek stealth machine, with lots of carbon bits that keep the weight low low low. The deep-section rims should keep their shape even if the road quality is less than ideal. As with the Elite, the stem has neat internal washers for adjusting the position of the bars. This machine will get you to work on time with no compromises.
