I have to agree. Although I love the ladies of TE, I have found that we/they as a group can be a wee bit on the skeptical/cautious side. Sometimes making a brave decision is exactly what you need to do.

I'm not saying you should buy the bike as I don't know all the facts, but I would certainly not rule it out without serious consideration. If it fits, is in good condition, and is less expensive than other comps, it might just be the bike for you.
