WTB : Road Bike (beginner)

I have been riding around an old huffy road bike forever, and I’d like upgrade.

I’m looking for something cheap, no more than $400, but closer to $300 is better.

Tight budget, I know. (FWIW I’m about 5’8")

This is the one I bought …it’s got two wheels and gears…works well enough for me.

Just make sure you get one that fits right or it will be something you will sick of quick

That is the same bike I have. I put it together myself and was pretty simple. Has been sitting for over a year and debating if I wanna sell it or get it reset at a bike shop to get back into it.

Thanks for the input, I plan on getting properly sized.

What frame size?

Either 59cm yellow.

Rode it about 3 times then broke my shoulder (not on this bike) and hasn’t been ridden since.

I have two. 1983 gitane Tour de France (steel 54cm) and a 1986 canondale sr500 (aluminum 52cm). If your interested shoot me a pm and you can try them out.
