My old Trek Mountaineer 200 was stolen or something last night and I might just be spontaneous. The Diamondback I can get with free 2-day Amazon shipping so that's nice. But any insights? I don't know much about bikes except the one I had :'(

The Redline looks awesome but apparently isn't that fast on pavement...

You realize the Redline is a singlespeed, right? And the other ones are not?
