I found a really nice Raleigh bike at a local bike shop for around $350 with tax and my persistence at needing a kickstand. What else would you do with a bike with no kickstand???? It made me sound like an 8 yr old but I didn't care. I got the kickstand. I got the men's version of the bike. They size you for a bike-- S, M, L, XL and it has nothing to do with weight. It has to do with height and the length of your torso, etc. I tried out 3 of them, and I got a comfort men's bike. I LOVE it. I rode it around for awhile and I didn't fall off OR pop any tires.
My boyfriend's bike is in the shop getting a tune up and then we are AT it to hit the hike and bikes. I'm excited!
