Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads Hi all, I am looking for a road bike recommendation. My budget is around $400. I found two around my area. The Giant Avail is $400 and the Gary Fisher is $285. Are these good deals? Thanks! by Himegamii Bicycle Bike Right for me Which bicycle Which bicycle is right for me Which bike Which bike is right for me
Horror-Raisin-877 on September 16, 2025 10:03 pm Both appear to be in good shape from what we can see in the pictures. But I like the Fisher. It’s got character. Carbon rear triangle and fork, and nice wheels. The Giant is just generic bike. Nice bike, but it doesn’t have the bling and panache of the fisher. Make sure it fits you. Either bike I would say would need new pedals, unless you like cheap nylon flats 🙂
