Are you an advanced biker? If not you should just get something that doesn’t cost that much, and get it fitted for you.

The biggest thing I noted when I started is how ridiculously important the bike being fitted to you needs to be. If a Novice you won’t notice the difference between a really high end bike and a bike thats average.
