I'm buying a bike...

I dunno if anyone said this, but don't bother getting an expensive bike, it'll only get stolen.. And don't get one from the papers, the previous owner will probably come back and steal it with an extra set of keys for the lock or something..:rolleyes:

I thought you meant a proper bike lol.

So back on track - Is $99.00 going to get a decent bike that will last me or should I invest a little more, suck it up, and eventually be happy that I spent the extra money?

I really dig these cruiser bikes... I like the minimalist design of them and I think it will be perfect to serve my puposes. Here's a couple I've chosen from two manufacturers if some of you want to look at them and compare and give me your opinion...

3 g mens beach cruiser bike-$99 :: Beach Cruiser Bikes-$119 :: cheap skateboards $20 cheapest skateboard decks,almost rodney mullen uber experimental skateboard decks,Plan b completes,Girl skateboards,Flip skateboard deck,New alien logo grip tape

Basically they are the same bike as you can see... Aside from the much different price tag. So far the only advantage in my opinion is the more expensive has white wall tires which I like. So what do some of you think? Any comments would be much obliged...
