hello - would like your help for a new bike
#1
Hello! I just signed up and drafted a long post and was clicking submit and then all the windows closed and lost all my work. This never happened to me. Well, here it goes again.

Looking to but a used bike, and I feel lost and like I'm swimming in a sea of bikes as options. I would very much appreciate your expertise, knowledge, experience with bikes.
I am 5'3" proper proportions (with a little bit longer and slender arms, I think it's all the money bars I played on when I was young lol) But looking for the best value/investment for what I pay. I wouldn't mind having 2 different bikes. I'm okay with 1 as a more road bike or hybrid (I don't if these are okay for concrete sidewalks with sand, it's by the beach), and another one as a hybrid or mountain bike (I don't know if tires of mountain bike tires go bad if ridden on concrete with sand more often then mountains).

I posted all the names of them before everything just closed and disappeared. So going to try attaching photos of them instead and hopefully the experts/you'll be able to identify them? If you need more details more than happy to.

All bikes are pretty much in great condition.

Trek larger youth bike white, pink, purple is - $50
Trek FX7.1 all black bike in photo for - $125 (not the one with disc brakes)
Trek bike 7200 17.5” frame (blue one) - $120
Trek Precaliber 20in wheel 7-speed HardTail Mountain Bike- 2022 - $125

Specialized Hardrock -$140

I think I've attached other bikes too as photos that might not be above.

So attempted to narrow it down to

Specialized white and green one in photo (29" tires but 17") Myka V 650B - $100

Cannondale (the white and red one) for petite size I think its a Quick 3 2016 (?) - $100
(I notice this one doesn't have front suspension, does it make that much of a difference)

But i any listed above are a really high value with good performance, I'm looking for the high value and high resale cost. I honestly I don't know how long my biking hobby will last with a busy schedule so high resale value is considered. I guess I'm looking for the bike where someone says I have to get because it's a great deal I shouldn't pass up. I will of course try the bike for fit and comfort.
