I am a newbie looking to get into cycling. I went to a local store and they had a 2012 Cannondale Synapse Sora. Brand new bike that just hasn't been sold yet. The guy offered $750. I thought that this was still a bit high for a year-old bike with components that have been upgraded since then, but wanted to get input from others as to what a fair price was. Also wanted to see if this was an appropriate bike for a newbie. It seems to be a bike that is a bit more comfortable (less aggressive) and would be appropriate for someone starting out. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
