Hey hows it going. I was thinking of buying this bike from Sports Chek, and was wondering if that is a good move. The bike is only $100 Canadian (even though it is brand new). The link for this bike is: sportchek.caproduct description.jhtmlOpen ↗
The only reason I am really considering this bike is because of its price. I have often heard that I should buy from a bike shop because department stores don't have real bike mechanics. What is your opinion on this bike? How long could I make it last with good care? Is it a good bike to take on long touring/road trips (approx. 140km a day) or will it just fall apart after a while? Is it even worth buying?
