Subject: Wanted - Small Road Bike for my Son
Looking for a Road Bike for my 10 year old son. He's done a 1/2 dozen Tri's on a mtn. bike and it's time to move up.

New or Used is okay want to spend less than $1,000

700c Wheels
Approx. Size 45-47c
Shimano Tiagra or better

He test road a Fuji Finest 1.0 XS/S today and with a few tweaks the fit would be fine. The only downside is that it said, "Made for Women" on the top tube, which is pretty much a deal breaker.

Thanks for your help.

The triathlon bike vs. road bike quandary. Before you even ask the road bike vs. tri bike question, you should have a couple sprint triathlons or duathlons under your belt.
