I'm starting to see that, I havehad a few people tell me I could find a used bike with a good setup in my price range but I have not found that as of yet. At the current time $1,000 is what I can spend. For me to have more I would have to wait until December for xmas bonus money, I want to ride well before then. Would you suggest getting one of these and ride for a few months then just upgrade parts with xmas bonus money?
