I have a good friend who is just trying to get into some of the shorter triathlons, doesn't own a bicycle, doesn't want to spend a lot of money, so I'm looking for a reasonably priced used but workable bike, doesn't have to be particularly light. Something in the line of the old Schwinn Varsity would be great. Thanks! Jimmy

James, your post does not mention preferred frame size or gender, but there is a suitable Specialized Roubaix listed in the Classifieds on Piedmont Bike.  See https://piedmont.bike/classifieds
