I haven't bought a new road bike in 30 years. I buy used frames and build them into bikes. And I buy used bikes. I was in the business from 1978 through 1984, and I'm out of touch with the latest merchandise. Also, since you're far away, you have different bikes available than we have here in the US. Visit a couple of local bike shops (which in the online cycling community we call LBS) and see what they offer. You'll get an idea. Also, a cycling magazine may have a buyer's guide, though take their advice with a grain of salt.
