Hello all!

I'm returning to cycling after a 8 year absence due to a back injury. I'm trying decide on a new road bike to buy. I use to ride an aluminum Raleigh 24 speed.

I'm looking for comfort and fit, I'm 5' 8" 225 lbs. I have visited several bike stores in my area, and most are pushing carbon fiber or carbon/ aluminum composite.

MY goal is to get back in to shape riding at least 3 times week or more. My budget is $1500 - $2000.00.

I have looked at Bianchi, Fuji, Cannondale, Trek, etc. So far, I'm leaning towards the Fuji Roubaix Pro or the Bianchi ViaNirone 7 AlumHydro.

I would appreciate any suggestions!

Thanks!
