Thank you for your replies.

I hadn't put down a deposit as of yet. I didn't know it could take so long to get a bike in, thank you for letting me know. When he told me a week, I took it to face value, but I should have known.

Thank you for letting me know I'm not the only one who had trouble with the height issue. I didn't realize it would have been an issue.

I"ll keep everyone posted on the decision of which one I go with. I might start with a HT and then upgrade to a FS like ride4fun. Just because I'm not sure how much time I"ll have for it, and if I invest about 2k, I'd like to make sure I use it a lot.
