I am looking for a good commuter road bike, mainly for school but i have no idea what im doing. Found this bike on craigslist, does it sound like a good deal? What sort of questions should i ask him? Any help at all would be really appreciated guys.

I would avoid that bike, its ok if you want to go around London as a courier but for school runs and commuting its probably not right.
How much do you want to spend is the first question?0 -
You know am i getting a good amount of leftover financial aid $$ so i'd say im willing to spend $200-300. So should I avoid road bikes for commuting altogether?0

The reason people are saying it's not a good commuter is because it has no brakes or gears, not because it's a road bike.- - - - - - - - - -
