Finally - Saturday I'm going to my LBS to test ride road bikes. They carry Giant and Trek. I've been browsing Ebay for a used bike, even though there are some good deals. A used bike fits my budget at this time, but from doing enough research I realize different manufacturer sizes are different, a WSD frame or compact and you just can't go by standover - inseam size, there is the tube length to consider - if you have a long or short torso.
