This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You probably got a quality bike for a steal then. I mention a price range because you're much less likely to get something that'll fall apart in a few months.

As long as you avoid big box brands (Huffy and whatnot), you'll be fine. You can get a decent used Surly or Giant or something for $200-300 if you know what to look for, but that's also the range for crappy big box bikes new, so I increase the number to $500.
