How you can select a relatively inexpensive road bike for a heavier rider
I wish to start mowing the lawn from home to operate so I have to purchase a bike. I'd rather not spend a great deal on the bike as well as I am not thinking about bikes that Target and Walmart sells. I'd like something cheap yet worth the money.
My priority is my weight. I'm a heavy guy and i am afraid of smashing the bike in only 1 week! I'm 186cm (6'1") tall and 117Kg (257 lbs),[url=http://giuseppezanottisneakerssale.olimx.com/][b]http://giuseppezanottisneakerssale.olimx.com/[/b][/url]. Is there any problem with bikes for a over weighted person much like me?
I'm looking for road bike that is priced between $300 to $500 that can handle my weight. I know for you personally bike lovers it's not enough to provide a good bike but unforgettably I can't spend more.
I simply give an example that's during my target budget range:
I looked on the internet and found the Windsor Wellington 3.0 on bikes direct:
EDITED to create question more helpful for others. :)
I know available lots of things online and that price is competitive online,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]Discount 2013 Nike Soccer Shoes online sale[/b][/url], however, you do need to know exactly what you are buying, and, given that you have posted this here, you will possibly not be there yet.
Check out the local bike shop, show the sales people what you are looking for, what distance you are having to place in, whether that is going to be all on roads or on trails, whether you are likely to be a reasonable weather cyclist and what you're going to need to carry. Also mention what sort of money you had been seeking to spend.
Then allow the shop show you 2-3 bikes that meet your criteria. Observe how the bike feels and,[url=http://parajumperssalenorge.albirank.net/][b]Parajumpers Long Bear[/b][/url], when they will let you, continue a short test ride. Inquire about the brands pulled out the rack and why the store sells them. Also, inquire about just how much the accessories will cost. You might need lights, you will need the tyres changed for that road and also you might want a lock. Hi-viz clothing, a track pump and perhaps a helmet also makes the deal, it is possible to higher negotiate a cost should you include the accessories - lots of bikes have a price the shop (online or otherwise) has to sell at otherwise they lose the casino dealer rights, they cannot do a deal on that but they could possibly do a deal on the accessories.
Customisations can work out better of purchasing from the shop as swapped out tyres can be put back into stock. Exactly the same with a seat and pedals (if you go clipless).
Keep in mind that the local bike shop need to compete with the internet box shifters, they might be unable to achieve this on absolute price however they certainly can with service. They're simpler to reach for any warranty return and they may well put a totally free service in to the price.
Shops also provide cosmetically 'shop soiled' bikes that actually work absolutely fine but have incurred a scratch throughout their time in the showroom. You are able to negotiate a cost on these, particularly if they're a 'last year's model'.
Dimensions are really important. Considering the fact that you're 6 foot+ you'll be having to look at the 'Large' size or 'X-Large' size. You are able to only determine which is the best for you for a given brand should you go to the shop. Remember they may not have access to your size inside your preferred model about the showroom floor, they might have one in the warehouse or perhaps be capable of getting one in for you in a matter of days. So, simply because your preferred model isn't there in your size, don' be overwhelmed - try the next model up if it is inside your size and then order the model/size you need to do want.
For unwanted weight,[url=http://duveticadoudoune.halod.com/][b]Femmes Manteaux Duvetica[/b][/url], that should not be a problem. However, you will need to keep those tyres inflated towards the value shown about the sidewalls if the wheels will be to survive. The easiest method to keep tyre pressures good is by using a track pump, these have a gauge in support of have a minute or two one a fortnight/month.
After going to the local bike shop and finding something you would like, you are able to go online and get a better price. This catalog shopping bike will come in a box and you'll need tools and a spare weekend to get it right. Should you order in the shop they is going to do all that for you, usually to a higher standard than you can do yourself. Plus you will be saving postage. lights) are purchased with the bike then expect these phones be fitted too.
As for that one bike, The specs don't appear all that spectacular. The "retail $900" price would not be very good, IMO,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]Duvetica UK[/b][/url], however the $400 sale price isn't bad. It's like the majority of from the parts are pretty low end,[url=http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/][b]cheap woolrich winter coats woolen mills[/b][/url], but that is to be expected around that price. (Generally entry-level road bikes wind up around $750-ish).
Have you considered a second hand bike? Craigslist is a superb spot to look. In regards to a week ago I got a 2002 Trek 2300, which was a $1900 bike in 2002, for $320 with some extra stuff. There was also recently a 2005 Giant OCR2 for $400. Craigslist is a great place to find a used bike, should you check it every day for any week or 2,[url=http://rogerviviershoesforsale.webstarts.com/][b]http://rogerviviershoesforsale.webstarts.com/[/b][/url], something will show up in that price range,[url=http://rogervivierheelssale.webstarts.com/][b]roger vivier heels sale[/b][/url], and it is likely to have superior parts.
You might also want to keep an eye on Nashbar, they've bikes branded under their own name which are relatively more affordable than the bid-name guys, and they have sales constantly (their sales change about every week). Currently they have some bikes on closeout and a few have been in that $400-$500 range that may suit you.
For those who have ridden and like the bike you posted, then go for it, go for it. Bikes are funny things, and sometimes one just "speaks to you". I'm just trying to suggest another viable options, and picking one online without test riding it can be really tricky,[url=http://peutereyoutletitaliaonline.olimx.com/][b]Peuterey Outlet Italia[/b][/url], since geometries vary
I additionally wouldn't worry too much about unwanted weight. The frame is sure to support you. The places on the bike that will typically be effected would be the wheels,[url=http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/][b]woolrich winter coats[/b][/url], and often the seat rails (in which the seatpost clamps to the seat. If possible, I'd attempt to get a good seat, preferably with titanium rails.
