Decently athletic, with regular running and power lifting, and looking to add the occasional bike ride to my routine. Not sure yet how much I’ll get into it, so keeping to a lower budget of $500-$1000 and have been keeping an eye out for a good deal. Mostly sticking to a paved trail (W&OD, for those familiar), but leaning towards a gravel bike for versatility. If I take to it, I could see myself using it for commute purposes.
Came across a sale on Poseidon where I could get the Redwood for $500 with promo code (Dropbar X too, but not in my size).
Last-Call Closeout
Just looking for confirmation that this is a good buy, and not garbage parts. Admittedly, a bit overwhelmed regarding all the brands and determining what to look for.
Probably would consider changing the wheels to something more road oriented, so would love some recommendations there too if possible.
Open to any other suggestions as well, thanks!
