Is the Mercier Galaxy 54cm Shimano Deore/Sora steel any good? been used for 100 miles.?

Question

I want to begin cycle training but do not want to buy a new bike just yet, I know NOTHING about bikes, is this a good choice?

Answer 1

It's not a bad entry level road bike. Of course it depends what the seller's price is, the condition and age of the bike as to whether it's a good deal. Also, be certain the bike fits you well. A good fit is very important to an enjoyable and comfortable ride. A ballpark height range for a 54cm would be about 5-8 to 5-11.

Brand new the bike costs $500 from bikesdirect. Here's the URL: http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/merc...
