Looking to buy a used hybrid bike. I'm 5'7 and looking to buy one so I can get some extra exercise and ride with my son on occasion.

Anyone know of any tips, what size and how much. I'm hoping to buy something cheap, around $100-200.

If anyone knows of any hybrids for sale, let me know.

Craigslist. I found a Trek 1200 racing bike in very good shape for $125, they are near $800 new.

You can find a good used Trek 7.2FX for around $250 or so. I know that is a little higher than you want to pay, but I highly recommend the bike if you are looking or a hybrid. Check on-line, I'm sure there are deals out there all over.

I have a 2010 Trek Madone 4.7 road bike. Carbon fiber frame, fork, brake levers, and seat post. SRAM Rival gear/brake group. Love it! A little bit more than what you were wanting to spend though.
