hey guys,

im looking to get a roady for commuting. just wondering if anyone knows a forum like this for roadies where i might be able to pick up a second handy or

a new one for cheap.

Looking for something half decent as ill be going around 60kms a day commuting.

and maybe a few weekend spins. But i dont wanna spend to much ... i would rather spend all my money on my MTB.

What's your budget, how tall are you and do you want something racey or one that'll take mudguards/carrier?

im looking to pay around 500 - 600 but kinda depends on the bike i guess.

thing is im only in ireland a year or so and taking it back to OZ is probably not an option.

Definately looking for a racey type of bike

and im a little under 6ft.

Just want something thats going to ride nice and not weigh a ton.
