^^Second that advice on the used bikes. You might have to be less picky on what you settle on, but in general as @hokiefyd says, there's a lot of good value.

Now is the time, people are clearing out their garages with spring cleaning and getting rid of bikes they are replacing new. If you wait too long, then the pickings will be a lot slimmer until end of season when people get rid of stuff before winter.

I got really lucky last year with mine... I wanted a Giant Roam 0 or Roam 1, and was trying to factory order a new one in August/September because all of the 2016's were sold out, and none of the 2017's were in stock yet. Due to a comedy of errors on both Giant's factory and the LBS, the deal went south in October, so I decided to put it off until this spring.

Then just by luck, I found a 1 year old literally like-new Roam 1 in exactly the size I needed (large), no less than 1 block away from where I live for sale on Kijiji (Canadian version of Craig's List).

The bike was selling new for $989 CAD, I paid $400 for it, like I said, virtually new condition.

Not often you find the exact model you want, and quite often when you do, it's the wrong size. In this case I got lucky with both, and made out aces with the price too.

Best of luck!
