| Newbie Questions Hello to all;
Want to upgrade my riding and my bicycle this spring. I have a Specialized
Hard Rock Sport that I use for errands around town and light trail riding
and I love this bike. I also have an older model church yard-sale Matsuishi
10 speed that I use for longer road rides. This is the bike I want to
upgrade. I usually use this bike for 10-15 mile rides a couple times a week
for fun and exercise and want to upgrade.
I hope to extend the road rides to 20-25 miles or so and would like some
recommendations on a bike. I am about 5'11 210 lbs, so I need something
that is strong enough and comfortable enough for someone my size. Not into
racing, just riding to get a little sweat and have some fun.
Would like to spend no more than $500-$600 and get something that I am not
going to want to upgrade again.
New to this group, so please point me in the right direction if there is a
bette place to post or a web site where I could find some useful info in
making my decision.
thanks |
