I was in a same position as you and came to realization that it is probably a good idea getting the better bike that i will like and ride rather getting something that isn't gonna do it for me.
i have never use a speed bike before...how does a 3 speed help? like going uphill or downhill or flat? if i plan to get it...i plan to bring it to my lbs and have them re-assemble it for me. i just called around..prices are around $50-$70 for re-assembly. what is tune up? what do i ask them to do for tune up?
