After what I think might be in the region of three hours searching for bike not including the time spent educating myself on all details etc. I have finally sercum to just asking what to get.
I'very ridden my mates bmx which had a 21.5 TT which I think is definitely to long for me as he's like 6ft 3 and I'm 5ft 10 so I thought a 20.5-20.75 TT would be about right and I like his gear ratio 25/9. So my dilemma is I know that obviously the more cromoly the better but I'm having trouble finding one in my price range. I'm in the UK and thought I'd found a decent enough bike for me as a beginner and in a colour I like too (added bonus) but then only to find out that Diamonbacks are suppose to be rubbish.
So I put to you the probably most widely asked question in the sport, what do I get? I have about £250 would I ideally like as much cromoly as possible andDas said before probably 20.5-20.75 in length and 25/9 gear ratio what would everybody suggest?
would be this one.%
thanks for your help everybody.
