Hey guys. I'm a college student looking for a relatively inexpensive ($350 or less probably) bike to use around town rather than my car. I used to ride bikes all the time when I was a kid, but it's been a while and I'm excited to get back into it. I like the looks of the vintage road bikes like the Peugeot Ventoux bikes and even the new Kilo TTs, so I'd like something along those lines look wise but I'm pretty open to the features and everything. Basically I'm looking for something nice that makes sense for city and some fun riding.
Can anyone give me some advice on what bikes to look for and where? I'm in San Diego. I found a few Peugeot bikes on Craigslist, no idea if they're any good. Also, I'm about 6'1 and I think the suggestion is that I get a 60cm frame bike - will that be tough to find? I'm open to fixed gear. But I don't know much about these things yet so feel free to school me.
Thanks!
