Elsewhere on road.cc this weekend, Stu's been checking out Reilly's Fusion... And, without too many spoilers, it did pretty well... It wasn't just the Lionesses who made history yesterday, Annemiek van Vleuten did too... The 39-year-old comeback queen dominated – once again – on the slopes of La Planche des Belles Filles to cap off a historic week for women's cycling. Sufficient, I was surprised the roadbike was able to take it. In conclusion, the versatile Schwinn Phocus 1600 drop bar road bicycle is a good investment for you if you don’t want to splurge on a top-end model right at the start of your cycling journey. With an industry-leading lifetime warranty to back your purchase, you really don’t have much to worry about. Go ahead and pull the trigger as you are sure to be impressed on many counts, including style, quality, performance, and price. If you are in the market for the best entry-level endurance road bike, the well-built, well spec’d, and stylishly designed Forcella will not disappoint you. It's a little heavy, the gears don't go quite high enough to compete with the expensive bikes in a sprint, and the brakes need adjustment, but it rides lovely once you set it up. So my final little plug, get the bike, get it set up, and as long as you do, you can't beat the value, I promise. But you will not buy this bike off the shelf and be ready to ride, it must be set up, it's a performance cycle and needs to be treated like one, even if it is less expensive.

Part of the generation inspired by the 2012 Olympics, Dan has been 'enjoying' life on two wheels ever since and spends his weekends making bonk-induced trips to the petrol stations of the south of England.
