Best Road Bikes in the UK

Easy on the wallet, and easy on the road! We daresay you can hardly find such a quality and affordable road bike as the Barracuda Vivante! The manufacturer pays careful attention to every detail so that you could get an excellent built bike (already assembled!). This road bike has everything a beginner biker might need, and even more! At 15 kg, the bike features an aluminium frame, carbon fibre forks, and extra-light Verismo 700C alloy wheels. With such a combination of materials, bikers can be confident in bike's durability even at high speeds. And thanks to Shimano TZ30-31 21-speed system with bar-mounted rotational shifters, gears change very smoothly. The deep-section wheels are fitted with Kenda K-193 tyres, and to constantly maintain the desired level of pressure, we suggest you get a reliable bike pump.

Overall, the Barracuda Men's Vivante Road Bike is super quality and reliable bike that meets all UK and European safety standards. Plus, it comes with reflectors and a bell in order to be visible and sometimes "loud" on the road. Safety first is safety always.

Bicycles have already become an integral part of our life, and many people give up urban transport and sometimes even their cars in favour of bicycles. So, if you are looking for the best bicycle to ride around the city or commute to work, we highly recommend you to consider the Vilano Aluminium Road Bike! Such a stylish and glossy black bike will certainly look fabulous on any road. Literally, every bicycle element, including the brakes and 21-speed Shimano system with silver switches on the handlebar, looks classy and chic. The model comes in three frame sizes (50, 54 and 58 cm) for people of various heights to feel as comfortable as possible on the road.

In a word, the Vilano Aluminium Road Bike is an excellent basic road bike to get you to work or college. Made with a city lifestyle in mind, the bike has mount points on the frame for a rear rack (extremely useful for different goods and shopping bags) and a water bottle. So, you are welcome to get a sports water bottle and always stay hydrated on-the-go!

If you want to get a simple yet comfortable bike for riding around the city, the Vilano Rampage Road Bike is a worthy choice. Switching speed on this bike is impossible since it has a fixed gear, and it's one of the reasons why we consider this model as one of the most convenient bikes on the market. No more mess with shifters and no more confusion on how to choose a proper gear and speed! You will be fully concentrated on the road! Perhaps riding up or down a hill is not an easy task for this two-wheeler, but who expects super performance from a city road bike?! The manufacturer took care of a cyclist's safety and equipped the bike with excellent brake shifters providing smooth stops, even if they are quite sudden.

Yet, a zest of this bike is its exclusive design! This marvellous bicycle is represented in 4 unique colour solutions to highlight your style. Wide profile colourful wheels with 700C 28C tyres ensure maximum stability on the road surface and as a result - a comfortable ride. However, we suggest you get a spare pair of road bike tyres that will surely come in handy in case of a puncture. 

If you are not just a daily commuter but also an enthusiastic racer, the Vittesse Sprint 21-Speed Alloy Racing Bike will surely arrest your attention. At first glance, it might seem a bit aggressive with its massive "rams horn” handlebar, however, such design gives better control, so you will be able to ride more smoothly at the highest speeds. Plus, 21-speed gear system from the Shimano with comfortable shifters on the handlebar allows you to quickly choose the right gear. By the way, to make the ride even more comfortable, you can choose more suitable road bike pedals and bike seats.

The Vittesse Sprint bike boasts wide 28c tyres, and unlike models with narrower wheels, it will provide a smooth ride even on wood trails, not only on asphalt roads. The bicycle comes 90% assembled and you just need to connect pedals and adjust the seat and handlebar. It'll take you no more than 30 minutes, and ta-da! You are welcome to enjoy high-speed riding!

Undoubtedly, if we speak about a racing bicycle, here not the number of speeds plays an important role, but how fast the bike can reach full speed! So, if you want to get the better of your rivals in a race, pay particular attention to the Mizani Men's Aero Sports Road Bike 500! It has a unique handlebar design with Shimano STI gearshift system combining the braking and gear shifters in the same component. So, you won't need to change the grip to brake or increase the speed. Note that the bike has only 14 speeds, thus, you will accelerate to the maximum speed much faster in comparison to 21-speed bikes!

Additionally, we recommend you to buy such a useful device as a bike computer displaying your speed and tracking your route. Speaking of the brake system of this bike, two wheels are fitted with pivot callipers providing a maximum grip to make the process of braking as smooth as possible. Yet, the braking itself depends on how hard you press the shifters.

If you are tired of the sun blinding your eyes while riding, consider getting a pair of sport sunglasses. You know, every enthusiastic racer should have one!
