Thanks everyone for the info, I know absolutely nothing about bikes, I just would like a good starter bike thats good quality. I live about 3 hours west of Chicago, about 10 minutes from Iowa. Im not ever sure if there's any local bike shops around here, I will have to do a little researching.
My GOD! F2's are like $5000! Wish I had that kind of money for a bike lol. (hook me up
)
Generally how fast can a decent road bike get on a straight road?
