Well, I hate running and walking, but really enjoy riding my stationary bike. So, I thought I would mix the enjoyment of the outside with the enjoyment of riding a bike. Now, I need a bike. I went to a store today and they showed me a TRek for $695, that's definitely more than I wanted to spend. Do I need to take special considerations since Im so big? I weigh close to if not over 300lbs and I'm about 5'11-6'. What can I look for on Ebay that will fit the bill? I mainly just want to go on paved bike trails for now and after I get in shape and the weight starts to come off I'f like to mountain bike and maybe even do some amateur road competitions, charity events, or whatever.
Please help me out and at least give me some models to check out. I'd like to spend as little as possible, but am working between $350-$500, but I really want to stay around $200... hehe. Thanks! I'm going to start reading posts to educate myself now. |
