how did you talk yourself into finally spending big $ on a bike (realizing that "big $" is relative)?




maybe i'll just buy the db podium 1 for $229 at dicks sporting goods.
None of the above! Ok I'm biased. Go to your LBS and get your measurements. Then buy a nice Vintage Light Weight and pay less than a cruiser for a bike that rides like a $1400 to $1700 bike. Just IMO of course.

I just had my 1989 Peugeot rebuilt from the ground up and it cost $280
