Would I be wasting my money on this bike?

I'm only looking for something to ride for exercise 20 Saturdays a year when the weather is nice.

If you ride it 20 times a year it's worth it IMO

Gears is where you will notice the most difference

Crap components on that bike. Plus how short are you?

That's the right size but after ride #2 you are going to wish you had better

What specifically about the components will I notice?

I don't know bikes but I'm sick of mine falling apart so quickly.

Components are where all the money goes into

If you can spring a little more, I'd get this.

GMC makes bicycles? You on a budget or something?
