Down to 2 Bikes....




So after getting fitted properly, I have narrowed my search down to 2 of the 3 bikes, the Newer bike was too big for me.

So it's now down to:

Bike #1 2001 - Trek 2300 - Rolf Vector pro wheels and Shimano Ultegra components, 2001 edition, 56 cm. The bike was crashed so some damage tot he shifters. - $500.00


Bike #2 2001 Trek 1000 with Sora components, bike in perfect condition, only used a few times in the last 3 years, The owner is throwing in her trainer (alittle old, but works great) - $350.00


What do u think? I was leaning towards Bike #2 because it was alittle cheaper, and in better shape, and it had the trainer

Hello all,
I am looking for some advice, I have found a few used bikes that I am looking to get, I wanted to spend around $500.00 for a good used bike.
I want to know what you guys think, should I grab one of these or keep on looking through the the winter?
Thanks in advance for the help.. I believe I take a size 56.. the guy at the cycle shop said with a Gaint I'd take a Small, or just maybe a medium,
