I have a question to ask you guys, I'm looking to get into biking to work everyday. I have to travel about 10 kilometers each way. I got an old Norco bike for free, it's twenty years old but still for the most part works. Just needs some adjustment, it realistically would need a new seat, cables, tires, tubes, and maintence ect. So a few hundred bucks worth of stuff. Or I can buy a starter road bike for 300-400 new, kijiji has a few bikes but I'd rather try a bunch out a place like bow cycle or the bike shop first.
Would you guys rebuild the old bike? The guy I got it from said it was "top of the line" back twenty years ago. Or buy a new bike that's probably a lot cheaper of quality?
