Looking for a starter bike for myself (45m). Just looking to ride mostly around neighborhood and bike paths. Maybe some light gravel. Don't want to break the bank on a ride just yet. Narrowed it down to the following:
1)Trek Dualsport 1(I can't find the 2 or 3 near me) I found a DS2 but its an XL and might be too big for my 5'11 frame.

2) キャニオン ロードライト 5。SRAM Apex 1/Shimano MT200 搭載

I know that the roadlite has better components, especially for only 100$ more (seems lije too good of a deal).. One of my concerns is warranty issues. I've heard Canyon customer saervice is a mixed bag, while my LBS offers an extended service plan (including adjustments).
Also, im concerned about buying the bike online without trying it out first. Any advice is appreciated.
