I got the check from the insurance man and plan on adding a new (or slightly used) roadbike to my arsenal. Currently, I have 6 road machines, all old ('77-"88) and all lugged steel.
The owner of my LBS has his Felt 35R up for sale and I'm thinking about giving it a ride to see if it'll be the bike. I need to be officially fit, of course, but this should be pretty much the right size.
I'm guessing it has less than 1,000 miles on it and he's asking $1,300.
I guess my questions are: What should this be selling for? Is $1,300 (I bet I can get it a little cheaper) a decent price or should I wait and buy a new model year with carbon stays?
What do you guys think?
