General Discussion / Choice of bike

« on: December 03, 2011, 11:22:19 am »

We are a fit, retired couple, getting ready to do a tour next spring. Right now we're choosing touring bikes and want something not custom built, with steel frame, flight deck shifters and preferably mechanical disc brakes.  We'd like, at a minimum, Shimano Tiagra components. Does such a bike exist in a new 2010 or 2011 model? We're leaning towards new bikes but can't break the bank. Any advice or recommendations are appreciated.
