One down Giro 400 RRP £399.99 Compare

Giro 500 (2006-2007), RRP £499.99

Dawes says

The Top-of-the-Range Giro, this 500 is just that bit Lighter, Smoother and Faster than the 400. It has the same Compact Lightweight Geometry Frame, but with upgraded Forks to reduce the weight even further. The Sora Drivetrain on the 400 is replaced by the Awesome Tiagra Set on this bike, giving you 27-Speed, Super-Smooth, Slick Gears, making it Dawes' Best Road Bike.
