6 of the best road bikesVideo: Six of the Best Road Bikes
Are these the best road bikes of 2015? Well, they are certainly six of them and they represent some of the most interesting new road bike developments - there's more than a smattering of on-trend aeroness in our list, but these aren't all simply bikes to cheat the wind.
While it might seem like disc brakes are taking over the road cycling world (clue, they're not - not yet anyway), there are still many innovative and exciting conventionally braked road bikes heading for bike shops in 2015, with lighter, stiffer being replaced by more aero and more comfortable as key design aims. We've rounded up six of the most interesting new bikes coming your way in 2015 - there are more out there, and you might not agree with all our picks, but check them out and see what you think…
If you missed our Six of the Best Disc Braked Road Bikes video roundup you can watch it here.
David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes.

Nice. I'd ride that Madone now.
This one seems to work the other way, and be genuine Nimbyism - Pimlico wanting to keep its passports....
