i agree as some online feeback sites are horrible - however i'd hate to spend $150 on something and have it turn out like garbage even after reading others saying that it was garbage.
if i have to spend another $50-$100 i can - i just don't really want to.
i've invested about $100 in the bike recently in order to get a new tube, wheel, and tune up.
i'm starting to feel like the $ is adding up more and more and maybe i should just start from scratch and buy a new rig.
