>>1018532this is a pretty insane deal but keep in mind the frame has to fit your body (or pretty close)
this bike is for a shortish person, low-average height tops
get the cheapest thing that fits you reasonably and ride the fuck out of it for a good while. then go to shops and test ride nice(r) bikes, that way you'll have a frame of reference and can make an experienced judgement about _if_ you should upgrade and what specifically you want without wasting a lot of money.
