cheap bike
i am looking to bike 245 miles this summer but i have never really biked before. never had a bike. never even thought about it until about a month ago and now i need a bike if i want to make the journey. im mostly looking at used considering i dont have enough for a brand new bike. so my questions are:
1) what is the best way to get a lightwieght bike??
2) should i build the bike or buy a complete one??
3) would craigslist be a good idea to get a halfway decent bike??
4) how do i know when a bike fits me good??
5) if im 5'8" and 126 pounds how big should my bike be??
6) is it possible to get a decent bike for under $400??
thank you for taking the time to read
