Need Advice on a possible purchase *UPDATED*
Hi,
I am new to this forum and want to apologize in advance if this is in the wrong section. First, I am brand new to road biking, it has been something I have wanted to try for a while and I am finally taking the plunge. I have looked through numerous threads on this site and want to say how great the information on here is, it has been a real eye opener and really helped me when looking at different bikes online.
The reason for my post is that I found what I think is a decent deal on craigslist and I thought that if anyone had any feedback, good or bad, this would be the place.
The bike is a GT Force? although I am not too sure about this as I have not found a similar one anywhere online. The guy selling it does not seem to have a great amount of knowledge although he has been very good about trying to answer my questions. It is Reynolds 4130 steel frame, Shimano RSX derailleurs and shifters. Unfortunately that is about all the information I can get about the bike. I have attached a picture that he sent me.
ANy information anyone may have about this bike would be great, he is selling it for $245 which after doing a lot of research seems to be a decent deal.
Thanks,
Matt
