I was going to buy a bike from Walmart but I don't know what are the qualities to look for in a bike. I just want something to ride around the town and to ride on bike trails.

From what I heard from my crony you should look at the component set(brakes, shifter, derailurs). I only know about Shimano component sets, which are as follows:

Dura ace- Ferrari
Ultegra-Bentley
105-bmw
Tiagra-Toyota...

By the way I would rather buy a good quality used bike then a medium-low quality new bike.


Linus' are dope for riding around town.

Comfortable as fukk and fast too.


if you want something more agressive and fast you cant go wrong with bianci pista. Ive seen these on craigslist for around 500

here's mine. I don't ride it a hell of a lot. Picked it up to go riding with my kids. I'll go out for 10 miles or so occasionally. Nothing major, though.

My one son has the a tiny version of the same bike. My older son has a GT Mach 1 BMX, which is pretty much the exact bike I wanted as a kid (and still kind of do).

Also this is the first pic I've ever posted in any forum.

SO I'M GOING BACK TO ANN ARBOR SOON AND I NEED TO COP A NEW BIKE FOR NEXT YEAR. ANN ARBOR IS HILLY AS fukk SO HELP A CLUELESS BIKE GUY OUT. I'M NOT REALLY WORRIED ABOUT DIRT OR ANYTHING BUT A BIKE THAT CAN HIT A TRAIL OR TWO WOULDN'T BE THAT BAD. BUDGET IS AROUND $500-$700. THESE WHITE BOYS OUT HERE RIDING AROUND ON BIKES THAT COST MORE THAN MY OLD CAR.
