I want to get a low end road bike, I've been using a mountain bike with smaller road / cross country friendly tires (and a lockable front suspension) for 5 years now, it's an older Gary Fischer / Trek Wahoo from 2013 I think.
Anyways I looked at my local bike shops and these are the lowest priced road bikes they sell, Giant Contend 3, which is $620, and the Contend 1 which is $880.
I ride about 20 or so miles every other day on a bike trail that's over the levee where I live, mostly just for exercise and to get out of my house and into the sun. Is this a good choice? I'm really wanting to avoid going to Craigslist even if I could find a better deal, I'd rather have something newer.
