Hi there,

I have Specialized Dolce that I really like. Not sure how much they run new, but I got mine used off craigslist for $350, and it's been a great bike. I'm not sure what kind of bike you're looking for (road vs. hybrid vs. mountain) or the kind of riding you'll be doing (around town vs. long endurance rides vs. racing) but if you're looking to ride more than a little I would consider either upping your price point or considering buying used. Terry has a section on their website where you can look for used bikes that other people are selling, although before you do that I'd get fitted at a Terry retailer to see what size you'd be. And although sizing is important, the bike I have right now that I've put 3000+ miles on is too big, and yet it works fine...so there's always a little wiggle room. And if a bike feels really scrunched when you try it, know that there are a lot of things you can modify to improve the fit--changing the seat, the stem, the handlebar...for not a lot of money. A great resource I've found for looking at used bikes has been www.craiglook.com. You can search craigslist for a radius of up to 250 miles around your current town...great if you don't live in a huge city. I typically search size, model name, or brand name, and it's great! Much cheaper than ebay, too.

Good luck!
