Fit is by far the most important.
But this is a first bike, and no one really knows if this will really be used, or parked in the garage after 6months.
I would look used if you have a good local shop. You can get a 1-2yr old bike at 1/2 price.
I would much rather ride a higher end 5yr old bike, than a new cheap one.
Bikes tend to go on sale around august- as the next year models start to roll out.
Enjoy the ride.
