I don't think you're going to find a St. Joe anywhere for $500. Great bike, though. Without many hills and on a limited budget I'd take a harder look at single-speeds. You'll get more bike for the money. Plus less maintenance, less hassle. I took my SS to the LBS for its spring tune-up and they could hardly find anything to do to it.
