Purchasing a Bicycle

Question
I would like to buy a new bicycle, but am very confused about what to buy. I have looked at the Raleigh SC 200 and the Raleigh C 200. What do you think of those and do you have any other suggestions?

Also, do you know of any good website that gives good consumer reviews of bicycles?
Thank you,
Judy

Hi there,
You came to the right guy ; ) Sorry it took a while I woked this weekend, ALL of this weekend! I JUST baught a new bike. Its a Marin NOVATO and man this bike is so so nice! You are going to think I work for Marin but I swear I dont ok! This bike is everything you want it to be. I get SO many compliments on the bike and it rides like a DREAM. Its a new line of bike. Its a mountain bike frame but with road bike parts and stuff. Check it out at www.marinbikes.com Its FAST, light, beautiful, and all that. Can you tell I love it? If you want to see what I did to the bike like all the upgrades and stuff just e-mail me again and I will send it to you. I have all the parts I baught saved onto a disk with more info on the bike from the net. I kinda made a little book of my bike for myself.
As for the Raghley, Its ok but Marin is a better brand. Well hope I helped you out. Please let me know if you get this bike or what you at least think of it ok. Thanks for the question!
