Best Roadbike for the money? Trek Y-Foil. Little known UCLV bike from Trek, only built a couple years, were outlawed from sanctioned racing because they were to fast.
Still lots of them around. I bought a brand new one in Feb of 2001 for $1100. Has Shimano Tiagra components though. Just as fast as the High buck stuff, not as durable.
Lots of used available too.
