hboli4 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Yip, go MTB first. I did a couple of road races with the mtb (mainly do mtb) and then decided to get a roadbike to keep up with the bunches more comfortably. Bought it 2nd hand here on the Hub from Mad Mike!!! Escapee.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclewizz Posted August 23, 2012 Share I dont think anyone I have spoken to has said get a road bike first That's because they all want to see you full of mud and fall (frequently). Get a ROAD BIKE with CAMPY !!!!!!(You can thank me later). **flame proof suite is on, bring it on** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
