I went to a bike shop today and saw a "Guess RB1", I havent heard of guess because I know very little about road bikes as this will be my first. I am just after a good first road bike I can train on, get fit and hopefully go out with my local club. The bike had shimano sora (would 105 be better?) and a guess 2 cog front sprocket. If i were to get a bike id like to get a shimano flight deck computer too. I dont really know what im looking at here, i see bikes with £3,000 price tags on them, and look at a £500 bike, and don't know the difference. :(
What size frame will I need? Im 6ft tall and the bike i sat on was a small frame, i felt cramped and uncomfortable on it, the shop dude said I needed one with a bigger frame but he didnt have any bigger bikes I could try. I will be going back there tommorow afternoon probably because I have to pick up something my brother sent in for repair.
