As far as entry level road bikes go, the Diamondback Airen 1 is definitely a contender that will take you well into your road cycling career. A precisely built piece of art, this fairly light 7005 alloy frame, carbon fork, and shimano-outfitted bike is just what women want. Diamondbacks' 'Divine Design' geometry is specially created with the female cyclist in mind. Kinetics, asthetics, and comfort all go into this lovely little speed machine. Having been riding the 2012 model for just over 2 years, I have put her through quite a beating. Pedaling her for everything from weekend road rides to upgrading her with wider wheels and racks for short and efficient tours, my Airen 1 has proven to be one strong and versatile road warrior.
Extremely affortable, reliable components, and sturdy frame allow for veratile touring use that most high-line road bikes aren't cut out for. The Airen 1 model is complete with plenty of rear rack and water bottle braze-ons, and plenty of room to attach touring essentials. While a compact geometry frame, the chainstay is just long enough to provide heel clearance for your small to medium rear pannier bags. For those looking for a quick and light, short distance touring bike, checkout Diamondbacks' line of Airen bikes!
