Flatbar road bikes are an ideal entry point into road riding or commuting. The lightweight frame and road bike components will let you keep up on the road, whilst the flat bar handlebars will help reduce the stress on your back and neck.
The 2300 Shimano road bike components have been revised for 2012, similar to Sora of previous years, featuring an all metal construction to ensure precise shifting everytime.
