Would like some help buying a road bike.
Hey all,
I'm new here and would like to buy a road bike. I don't need anything extravagant or pricey. I just need a good, quality bike. I was looking at the budget road bikes thread stickied at the top of the forum, but I have no idea if any of them are good, or if I can get anything cheaper.
I was wondering if you all could help me find a road bike for cheaper than $500 bucks, or point me in a better direction. I'm a starving college student that would like to commute to work.
Also, are there any good cycling stores on the web? I don't know what you guys prefer.
Thanks!

Hey,
Hate to self-plug, but please refer to the thread I made to answer your question. It's a bit long, but I hope it helps: https://www.bikeforums.net/road-cycling/435374-how-buy-good-road-bike.html
