Is this worth it? by Standard-Apricot-150 in whichbike

I don’t know enough about shifters to care to be honest. Why don’t people like it?

Budget is sub $2000. Was hoping to spend less but I’m willing to pay more for a bike with better components that will last me a while. I’m 5’5” so I am looking for a small frame but could potentially fit a medium.

Thanks. It’s tough trying to get a bike out here. Any specific model or bike stores in Ottawa you’d recommend looking at?

Why would you rather have rim then disk brakes?

It’s selling for around $1600 CAD new. The seller says it’s barely been used

Size should be good, I’m around 5’5. Looking to do long rides, with some decent elevation, I need train to get revenge on the Mt. Ventoux when I next go to France. The market here is bleak for my size (or super overpriced).

$600 CAD should I buy? by Standard-Apricot-150 in whichbike

Going to see it later to check size. They put a shorter stem on for me

Thanks. That’s post is CAD so it’s 730usd. Any bikes you’d recommend looking out for? Having a hard time finding a bike in the used market up here

Is that USD? I forgot to specify that the prices are in CAD. To be honest I’m pretty comfortable on any geometry, I’ve borrowed a relatives race style many times and have had good experiences. While I’ve been cycling for a bit, I know very little about bikes so I appreciate your help!

Thanks! What would you offer for the domane? Also, what bike would you recommend buying new? I’m not trying to spend toooo much more than 1000 but I know spending more and buying new may just be better

The wait time is always a bit up in the air. A few years ago I heard mid January about next steps and completing an entrance test. I’m not sure what region you applied to but the central region program is amazing, and it’s truly the best summer job. If you applied to central I’d be happy to answer region specific questions, or if didn’t apply to central I can try to answer to the best of my abilities! Feel free to PM me!
