look for reviews/discussion about bikes on here. for one, all of those reviews are absolutely glowing, with no real discussion of negatives. also, you don't know what type of rider they are, whether it's their 1st or 10th bike, etc etc.

the info you find here will (hopefully) be more comprehensive, from a wider pool of riders than first time fixed buyers, and if you have any follow up questions, you can ask them.

at bikesdirect, there is no "what do we suggest"; it's all about what you're looking for. they're all pretty much equally decent bikes, so pick something with the features you're looking for, and then search the forums for info about it. if you don't find what you're looking for, then, and only then should you start a new discussion about it.

(there's a TON of info on the bikesdirect bikes here, so you best be searching for it.)
