if anyone here knows about current racing bikes, i'd like to hear your opinions. i was into cycling as a teenager but haven't been on a long ride in over ten years.
i'm planning to get something as a daily commuter, and i don't want to spend more than i have to, but i also want good quality and low weight.
i'm willing to spend up to $2k if it's worth it, but i'd rather spend much less.
i'm looking at the specialized sirrus, which has models from $550 to $2400. i think the bike gets lighter as you spend more money, but i don't know that the quality goes up.
i'm also looking at this one:http://2006.lemondbikes.com/2006_bikes/filmore.shtml
what do you know about these fixed gear bicycles?
TIA
