So , I need some help picking a bike . I ' ve been looking around with the help of this post and I have a few bikes that I need help deciding between . My budget is around 600 $ but that was more for getting a multi gear bike . The real thing I need help with is quality . As a first time bicycler , I don ' t know what brands are good or bad or what is good or bad so yeah . My choices as of now aretrackfixedgearbike 2016 ? varianttel 2 My favorite so far , mostly for price and shape its got drop down bars and brakes on both front and back , plus they ' re not in the normal placegression . c o m c o l l e c t i o n s c o m p l e t e b i k e s p r o d u c t s a v e n tonmatarocompletebikeThis one seems pretty good , I like the gear ratio I t h i nkbikecodistricttrackbike 2017 ? varianttel 4 I do like these bars drop down but I don ' t know if I like them better . pro ? nostofallbacknosto 3 varianttel 0 This one is more of a traditional fixie with no back brakes so I ' m skeptical . It ' s also up there in price compared to some of the others , but it does have drop downs , the gear ratio is good , and it looks nice so ? ?? 1 products 6 k u t r a c k f i xedgearbikebuildbymrbikes ? varianttelAnd this one , well this one is my IDK bicycle and I found it after looking through the black Friday sale things . I like the brake placement etc . and it seems an okay bicycle . Any suggestions are welcome , if you saw any other good bicycles shoot them by me please , I live in the central valley in Cali so they have to be able to ship there . I ' d also not prefer used . I don ' t trust used simply due to wear and tear and also the possibility of the bicycle being stolen .
