I had a similar problem Jerboa, couldn't decide between a mountain bike, road or hybrid. Eventually I went for a hybrid as it means I can commute without the drag of a set of fat wheels, but still go for a pootle with the family without worrying about taking skinnys out on the trail. I did a bit of pros/cons and came out with a hybrid. It also means i need to borrow a bike when I eventually do a tri. what would you use it for? |

I've bitten the bullet and ordered my hybrid  So that'll be me - road bike, mountain bike and hybrid. I'd better stop there before I end up with a divorce too (although in all fairness the mountain bike's about 8 years old, and the road bike was a CTW bike) Hybrid should be ready for picking up tomorrow or Thursday.

Ooh, suspension. That's posh. I've been suffering acute bike envy recently. I've decided I need a carbon-framed road bike. And some Look pedals. |
