I've been bugging my g/f to ride with me for months, she's into jogging, and I hate jogging. She started complaining about her feet and ankles after running, so I brought it up again, "Get a bike! Lets go riding!" Its the first time she didn't say no, which almost always means yes without actually saying it. I knew she would never get around to looking at bikes herself, and that she would never spend any more than a couple hundred bucks on a used one, so I searched on Craigslist and found this one for 150. This bike was sold at Costco, and I almost bought it myself when I was looking. A good friend of mine has the same bike and loves it. I told my girlfriend it looked like a good deal, she gave me the cash, and off I went to pick it up.
Its in very good shape, aluminum frame, all brand name components, same components as my Specialized Crosstrail pretty much. It came with a 30 dollar Kryptonite lock. Anyway, I did some adjustments and set it up the way she likes it, and she's having a great time with it I can tell! And she's doing good, she pretty much keeps up with me. Just have to gets some lights, helmet. I know its not the best bike out there, but its the bike that finally got her to ride.. so its good enough for now!
