Hi Guys.
Im looking to get into road biking. Im looking for entry level, or maybe just a bit above. I don't need a hardcore bike, but I dont want cheap.
The area I live in has nice country roads, and offroad paths (not serious hilly terrain, more a hardpacked dirt, etc).
Im not looking to race, or to go as fast as possible, and being comfortable is a plus.
So a cross bike seems like the perfect soultion.
I've found a used Ridley Crosswind that I like. It has Ultegra group, and is in good condition.
What do people think of Ridley bikes?
What do you think of the Crosswind?
Any other bikes similar to this that you would reccomend instead?
