Hi,
My name is Griff and I am searching for a used touring bike because many of the new ones are a little out of my range. Does anyone have any touring bikes they would like to sell? I am looking for around a 58cm and looking to spend around $700. Any help is gladly appreciated. Thanks and my email is griffcolegrove@yahoo.com if anyone has any ideas. THANKS AGAIN!
Griff

I have a 23" Trek 520 that I'm going to sell. The 23' equates to roughly a 58cm bike. Email me off the list for the details. My email address is available under my profile.

Have you seen the Adv-cycling classifieds, somebody is selling a Bruce Gordon Rock-n-road 57cm touring bike for $599 + shipping...

Have you considered a new Fuji Touring bike? I was considering them (virtually only) when shopping for a new bike this year. I haven't seen one in person because nobody anywhere near here carries touring bikes in stock (not even Trek 520's). It falls within your price point (although $850 MSRP, you should be able to find one closer to $700 retail).
