Help me choose!
Greetings from Canada, eh!
Ok, theres probably a ton of these threads out there, but its my first bike and i have absolutely no clue as to what is what. Here is what I'm currently looking at, and they're all pretty much the same price, give or take a couple hundred. Given that they all fit me well, which would be the best "bang for the buck" per se. Thanks in advance.
Masi Vincere $1050
Masi Bikes - Performance - Vincere
Miele Svelto RR $1200
Road Svelto RR Bike - Miele Kids Bicycles
Orbea Avant h40 $960

Well, you could save up to 20% if you went with Tiagra instead of 105. Not sure that makes much difference, bang for buck wise, because you're pretty much getting what you pay for.
Other than that, it's too close to call, so what others have said so far is not as facetious as it may sound. At this point, you'll get the biggest bang from the bike you think looks the coolest. I like the Masi.

I like the Masi for looks and quality, the Miele for components, and the Orbea is a more relaxed geometry so they all have something different going on. I would have to base that decision on test rides.

Take each one out for a ride and buy the bike that makes you want to ride the wheels off it.
