The Gina bike has low spoke count wheels (24/28) and the Trek doesn't list the spoke count. But in my experience, you will be spending some cash for a new rear wheel not long after you buy a low end bike. I thrash stock wheels like there is no tomorrow on bikes that cost $1500-$2000.
Start saving for a good set of wheels, or maybe even just a strong hand built rear wheel at your weight.
Man that sounds like I'm really heavy. lol I have some muscle but working on the damn beer belly. hehe

thanks. I just want a bike quick because it's going to get cold soon well surprisingly it was 80 a few days which is crazy for November in Ohio. I know I shouldn't rush getting a bike though.
