Responsive, reliable and comfortable. This is the machine to reach for when heading out on an epic, a Sunday club run or even a fast commute.
If you are looking for a bike that you can dig deep on the lonesome roads with, whilst not being restricted on your ability to explore, then look no further. The Monyash is specifically designed to appeal to year-round endurance riding with a comfier and more versatile range of abilities than a typical performance road bike. Further to it's all round capabilities, the geometry balances snappy and responsive angles with a slightly longer wheelbase to accommodate full length British-style mudguards in the winter, without sacrificing speed. The wheels on the bike are hand-built and bombproof, featuring thru axles and weather-proofed hubs yet remain one of the lightest wheelsets at this price point when compared like for like. With clearance for 32c tyres and mudguards, or 35c without, the all new Monyash is one of the most proficient all round, all day performers within the range.

Cranksets are pretty cheap to replace. My bike also comes with 105 and an FSA crankset and I looked at changing it but its been fine so far. You can get an R7000 crankset for £100, less if you buy on eBay/Marketplace.
On a side note - it has eyelets for a pannier rack which can open it up for a lot of other duties like commuting, touring or doing some shopping with.
Ive not got a whole lot of faith in the brakes but everything else seems fairly OK to be ridden for a season or two before being replaced or upgraded...
Most important thing is the threaded BB that can eliminate a lot of annoying creaking and squeaking that pressfits usually have or develop later on down the line. A lot of manufacturers are slowly moving back towards threaded BBs on their higher end/more expensive bikes.
Id also look at immediately replacing the tyres with ones that have more in the way of puncture protection, especially if you live in an area where roads are badly maintained like London for example.
Some good replacement brakes to consider would be Avid BB7's or TRP Spire's so factor those and any work at your local bike shop into your budget if youre no good at bike wrenching and dont have a friend that knows a thing or two about bikes. (BB7's and Spire's should work fine with Shimano 11sp)
You'd roughly be looking at around £20-30 for labour although some shops may charge as low as £15 because its a fairly easy and quick job to do. Your mileage may vary and some bike mechanics may do the work for less or even for free if you turn up with a cold beer/cider and a Morrisons chunky steak pie for them. (edited)
That seems like a stealAuthorUnbelievable price!- Great deal for 105
I would hardly call this 105 when 105 should come with hydro brakes and a 105 Chainset.
It is a little misleading
The chainset isn't Shimano, but it's all still branded gear. Weak point might be the cable disc brakes... But this is still a great deal...
Surely the chainset = front & rear derailleur + cassette of gears?
Front Derailleur: Shimano 105, Double
Rear Derailleur: Shimano 105, 11 Speed
Cassette: Shimano 105, 11 Speed, 11-30T
Looks like a Shimano 105 chainset!- Good price, but not to be confused with the proper hydraulic 105 specced bikes, that will cost a lot more.
Mechanical discs can be OK, but are way off hydraulic performance, also these discs are 140mm, so pretty small, they could be lacking in power, especially for a heavy rider.
Still, it's good value (edited)I have both. Ultegra hydraulic discs on my road bike, 105 cable discs on my CX. I don’t see it that black and white and certainly don’t see the cost difference of hydraulic. (edited) - They had this in store in our local Evans (in HoF) for the money looked to beat everything else round it at that price or up to a grand was tiagra / Sora nothing else I saw had any 105 for under £1500
What's the cheaper one's like?
Great price my Cannondale is almost the same spec paid almost 1200 end of last year.
What’s the weight of the bike?
Available on Evans at the same price, if anyone has cyclescheme where they work.

If you go via healthservicediscount and buy from sports direct you can get it for 665.04 as there is extra 5% off code- This listed bike isn't coming up when I click on the link.
It looks like I missed the deal.
