cheapest place to buy bikes from amazon

I previously had owned an aluminum 21 speed road bicycle, but it was HUGE, so I decided to downgrade and find a relatively inexpensive simplistic bicycle for my daily commutes. I ride from Beaverton to Lake Oswego, Oregon every day for work, and that sums up to about nine miles. And on this nine miles, I encounter potholes, train tracks, and sometimes gravel, depending on my route. Though I have been riding for three months on this bike, I have yet to get a flat or have anything else fail on me.



There are a few things I would like to point out that may require upgrades; The pedals, for one, are hard plastic and feel very cheap. I recommend heading out to your local bike shop and investing in some finer metal ones. I found a pair for ten bucks, and slapped my old toe clips on 'em. Not too fond of the handlebar tape, or the handlebar itself for that matter. I purchased this cool Tranz-X alloy bullhorn handlebar right here on Amazon. Brake levers are somewhat cheap feeling, but they do the job just fine. Lastly, the seat. I still have the seat it came with. It's okay, but I've been meaning to upgrade to a more sturdier, long-distance road saddle.

Overall, I definitely would recommend this bicycle for anyone who is looking for a cool looking, lightweight and simple single speed to get you around the town.
