Statistics Lines: 19 I am sorry to bother everyone with yet another, "what kind should I buy," posting, but it has been six years since I last looked at new bikes, and I am really clueless. What I want is a $200-400 bike that can be used to tour on. I am talking about weekend to month long, 200 to 1500 mile trips. I have looked at Trek, Univega and Fuji, and so far the Treks look good but a bit on the expensive side. I put six years and four thousand miles onto my present Univega, but it is about dead, and I hear that Univega has gone down hill since then. Any hints, personal experiences, opinions, or suggestions would be most appreciated. Please reply by mail.
