Okay found these two bikes on bikesdirect.com. The one has aerobars and the other does not. So assuming I spend $60.00 on aerobars for the one without which is my best option?

Answer 1

You should look for some reviews before you buy either bike. Most of the time, the handlebars that come on bikes of this price range are total c**p anyway, so if you are a serious rider, you will end up getting some nicer bars. As for the aerobars, I wouldn't get these unless you do serious triathlons. For normal road riding, these will end up as extra weight. You will hardly ever use them.

Answer 2

The 2nd one is the best but i do recommend that you go onto http://www.norco.com/ and have a look if you havent already.  

Answer 3

second one, and trust me since it has thin tires, it will go speeding fast!

Answer 4

honestly, I'm not impressed by either. I'd shop around a bit more. the LBSs will be getting their '09 inventory soon. now is the time to look for a bargain!
