I need something decent under $200, prefer a road bike with 31"-32" standover but I’ll look at anything. It’s for a commute so I don’t need a $1200 bike built for part of the Ironman and I don’t want a project. Looking for a cheaper but worthwhile road bike that rides, don’t feel like dealing with green card holders from Craigslist, thought I’d at least ask here. PM me thanks.

Caleb…physical fit on a road bike is VERY important. Keep in mind that entry level road bike start at around 550. Finding something that fits and that cheap is most likely not going to happen.

Depending on your commute, you’d be far better off on a Hybrid, or possibly an MTB on semi-slicks and a taller rear cassette. Come pick up your parts and I can explain, and you can ride mine and see what I’m talking about.

Sorry for not updating the thread. I picked up a Cannondale hardtail over the weekend, thanks.
