where is best place to buy bike online?

where is best place to buy bike online? i recommend amazon!

I bought this bike is decent for the price of $179. If you are deciding between this and Takara Kabuto they are both made by Kent the only differences between the two are frame color, wheel color and the frame material Steel vs Aluminum. If your buying just for looks then it doesn't matter. If you plan on upgrading components then you should just get the Giordano and save a couple of dollars which can be used for quality parts. The best bang for your buck is actually the Schwinn Men's Courier Bicycle (green). Too bad its green but overall the components are better.

I Switched out a couple of things I had from previous bikes. Flat handle bars, Brake Levers, Seatpost, Pedals. Removed all the stickers on frame and wheels, removed reflectors, chainring guard, kickstand (how many adults still use a kickstand) I'm 6' and the 56cm frame is fine.

Pros
Lighweight Aluminum Frame
Wheelset is also fairly light
Flip Flop Hub
All stickers can be removed easily including the one's on the wheels

Cons
Chainring on the crank is not removeable (cranks are steel)
Cheap Seatpost (replaced)seatpost is actually 27.2 (seatpost is steel)
Cheap Pedals (replaced)
Brakes not very good (will be replaced)Brakes are steel)
Handle Bar is fairly heavy (replaced)Steel as well
