Thanks for all responses so far.
Another question is the question of the frame. I would definitely prefer an aluminum or carbon frame to a Cro-Moly or High Tensile Steel frame. It would be nice to have a light frame, hence the preference for an Al or C frame.
What do you think re frame material?
And what says you regarding the price and components on that $245 bike posted on that website linked?
