Whats a good cycling bike for beginners?
I want to get into road cycling and i want a lightweight bike thats good price range (under $1000) and great for beginners to intermediate
The truth is, your best bet is to go to a good bike shop (you know, the guys who only deal with bikes and bike stuff), and take a look around – a good bike shop will only sell the good brands.
When it comes to bicycles, all the good brands build an equal bike, and it comes down to personal preference and brand bias, so it’s not worth just recommending one. You need to try some on for yourself.
The lightest bikes tend to be race style ones like this:

More important than anything else, is that you have the shop fit you properly. I wouldn’t buy a bike anywhere except a shop that way I have proper service and support. Order online and you’re on your own.
