Hi and welcome.

Thats pretty much sound advice what youve been given about the rear wheel situation. Just means you wont be able to upgrade parts as easily as pretty much every higher spec rear rim is made in a 19" size. Also you can run a thicker tyre (sidewall) on a 19" rim to even out the sizes which is always good.

Id recommend checking out the for sale section on here, 400 will easily get you a fairly decent bike on here. Depends though if you are looking for new. in my opinion id be looking for an already used bike as youre new, ita bound to get a bit battered anyway.

Sounds good mate.

It's much more likely the bike has been looked after if you buy from here too. I bought my T-pro from Gumtree last year, despite it being cheap as chips at £90, it was a tad dodgy.
