![]() My wonderful vintage steel Schwinn LeTour gave me the pleasure of having its chain just fall off mid ride, even though the bike has had tune ups and been thoroughly serviced by good bike techs. All in all, it's a nice ride for the price and it doesn't give me any headaches. My skirt got caught in its rear brake pads this past summer so now I've ordered dress guards but I'm not sure if they will really fit correctly. But, over the year I've put a Brooks saddle on it, a rack, panniers, basket, etc. I bought it to be a comfortable, easy and light-weight ride and if it gets stolen, not a disaster. I like it quite a bit but would I say I would have paid $500-600 for it? no! I only paid $300 and go it as a year end closing, trying to get rid of older inventory price. I have a budget Bianchi Torino (in a "ladies" frame). By the time they are done upgrading, the cost of the bike can reach a price point at which they could have gotten a higher-end bicycle - with many of those upgrades already included, not to mention with a better frame and higher quality components. And I am especially surprised to hear of people choosing the lower-end bikes, and then buying Brooks saddles, leather grips, fancy lighting and expensive pannier systems to go with them. In the long run, I believe that such a bicycle may cost more than an "expensive" bike. It's one thing to spend a couple hundred dollars on a bike and not care, but a price tag in the range of $500-600 is a lot of money to me - too much money to spend on something that I believe is shoddily made, will likely require upgrades, will not feel entirely comfortable even with those upgrades, and may fall apart on me within a year.
