Hi All,
Please be patient, first post.

I am considering a new road bike purchase after 12 years. I am 47 and what I would call a casual rider. (50-100 miles a week, March-Sept). Hibernation or indoor workouts during other months.

Don't have a large budget $1,000-$1500 but I have narrowed it down to two.

Cannondale Synapase Ultegra ($1350) vs Trek 2.1 ($1200)

any thoughts?
