disc
aot of people are saying that the disc brakes on $500 bikes arent that good. while i was going to get a db response sport which has disc brakes but if there going to be bad i could get just a response if its worth it.

i would get some opinions of others on here who know more about those bike brands as far as the bike goes. the rest of my advice is solid i think. |
Hmmmm.... buy a 500$ bike, ride it for a year, then spend 300$ upgrading one aspect of it? I dont think so! Buy the disk model, enjoy the disks their still going to be better than most (if not all) rim eaters, and then when you choose spend 150$ for better disks such as avid bb7's knowing that you already have a disk ready wheelset. Then if you wish you can spend that other 150$ on whatever, maybe a better rear derailleur, maybe a professional rebuild on the bike, maybe several parts at once 150$ buys a lot of parts especially if you haunt ebay ( dont include second hand shorts on this list).
