Anyway, good luck, but definitely shop around!
See, here's the thing. After riding with straight handlebars for my whole life, i really had no idea what a road bike was supposed to feel like... as i said, i'm still figuring it out. All i knew was that pain was unacceptable. Once i got the bike to the no-pain condition, i could start focussing on other stuff, like how it felt to handle on hills, bumps, curves...stopping..
