I've been looking at a couple used bike shops here in San Francisco, and I found a close out model (new, hasn't been used) of a Fuji 4.0 for $485. I've also been looking at Specialized and most of their starter models are around $700-$800. Any advice or what you prefer? I'm very new to this and have never owned a road bike.
I'm not ready to get into the higher end carbon stuff right at the get go and spend $1,800 on a bike just yet. Thanks in advance.
