Bicycles

[georgy.livejournal.com]

I'm looking to buy a bicycle. I don't want to do the time-consuming CL rigamarole. I know there are a few places in town (the place in Powderhouse Sq., Ace Wheelworks, Park Ave. Bicycle on Somerville Ave -- any others?) but I don't know a lot about the difference between them, which place is best, etc. What I'm looking for is a dependable hybrid bike that will get me around the city and the bike path for less than $200 (and the less, the better!). So, does anyone recommend one place over another?

Or, failing that, does anyone have a bike to sell? :-)

Thanks.

Cheap hybrids run about $250, so you might have to rethink your $200 line. Ace Wheelworks has a lot of bikes and Belmont Wheelworks even more. You may want to take a look at the Annex, the shop around the corner from Belmont Wheelworks that has all their "out of season" bikes. They are new, but last years models, and so come at some discount.
