Just my opinion.
If you are willing to ride an older bike, find a 1970s Motobecane. These are fantastic bikes. My father and I have a Jubliee Sport. The steel frames are like butta'. A bit tough to find in good condition, but you see them on craigslist and E-bay for $150-$450 depending on condition.

If any one is interested in a small frame Motobecane with cross over (straight) bars, I have one to sell/trade to help finance a new road bike. I may also be letting my Cilo & PPV go
