And I have to ask- is there such a thing as a roadie that doesn't want a new bike? grin We've had great luck with eBay- just be sure to ask questions before purchasing, esp if the pics aren't clear. Some bike shops also consign used bikes- you might try there.<br><b>References : </b><br> I agree with cycleman- but only because I’m justifying to my dh why I need another new bike!

If you were to pay 150 for a used bike it would probably make sense to get it tuned up by a bike shop (to make sure it is safe) which would probably cost around $45. So you'd end up paying $200 for a used bike when you could probably buy a brand new one (trek, specialized, giant) for about $230. Especially this time of year, the bike shops are dead! That's not to say you couldn't find a deal @ 150 if you were to look for a while. Maybe try cragslist.<br><b>References : </b><br> Why draw the line @ $150?

Maybe since you are familiar with Biachi - try that first. Bianchi sells Mountain bikes. There are lots of brands out there seems like the most I see are GT, Specialized, and Trek.<br><b>References : </b><br> I would start by using your search engine on used bicycles and see what is out there.
