I have not ridden in many years. I used to really enjoy it, but the last bike I owned was the WRONG bike. A full suspension Mt Bike that was very uncomfortable and exhausting. It sucked all the joy out of riding. I personally fell into disrepair with medical issues and now am overweight. I would like to get back into biking but am afraid to make the same mistake again. I know I need q very light weight bike so I can store it and transport it. I know I want high end, easy to use gears and shifters. I know I want disc brakes. I want to stay around $2000. I need the comfort features of a comfort bike, the utility of a hybrid, and lightness of a road bike. My riding will mostly be paved and dirt prepared trails.
Here is what I have narrowed down to. A TREK FX Sport Carbon 4 or a Specialized Sirus X 5. Neither of which are available right now. I will need to change out the stems to an adjustable one and I will need a huge pillow seat (at least in the beginning).
Which would you recommend? Are there other options that I am missing? Would there be any other modifications that would be suggested for either bike.
