help appreciated
hey guys i am fairly new to cycling, i had an old ricardo in school and that did me for a triathalon but since working i have not done it for 6 yrs
a couple of q's playin on my mind what is a good size for me i am about 5"11 also i have found some bikes that i like 2nd under a $1000, and just wondering which is the better bike. i know that i should see general condition but i just want to know about these general models cannondale r700-$600 wheeler 6100-$650 giant ocr1-$800 any help would be good i have read reviews and they all seem fairly decent. but i just wanted some people who may have ridden these bikes? i will be mainly riding to work just to get back into the swing of things then i will probably do a few longer rides. thanks guys |

Re: help appreciated
well that's a bit rough not getting a reply... i think us down unders are a bit slack on the old forum front. hopefully they're all out riding their pushies instead, but they're more likely watching tv.
personally, hurrah for cannondale! you wont buy a lighter bike, even for the money you put into the pretty paintwork. bel ------------- if it doesn't have wheels, it's broken |

Re: help appreciated
deano_ (and others wanting to know bicycle size)
check out the wrench science webiste for the correct bike size you need. http://www.wrenchscience.com/WS1/default.asp a few measurements to take, but its worth it. You will need assistance with the measurements. Use this as a starting point and try and ride as many bikes as you can around the figures given to you. Hope all works out. |
