i dont knowmuch about bikes…  
my old roommate offered me his trek 830 kinda like this for $50…its clean…i wanted roadbike…

it has smaller roadbike style tires on it and straight bars…can you just put curled road style bars on it? would it be weird?

it seems a lot like a road bike other (moreso than this pic) than the bars…i imagine the gearing is a little diff but that doesnt bother me too much

What are you going to do with a road bike? Become a “Bike Punk?” Actually, I hear that works out quite well for some Allen dudes…

Isn’t EvoMR the resident road-bike guy? Or was that Viper966…

fine, buy one that you have to pedal…

You’ll save a ton of money in gas… and still not have a bike.

Please, spend a bit more coin, buy something with 599 cc’s atleast. (i hear pillows is selling a 600rr)

ehhhh you could take it for a spin if you’re interested but I have a feeling the frame might be a little small for you…

I have a peugeot that would probably fit you nice,  
but I dunno if I really want to part with that bike hahaha
