Have been riding around on a Trek 7.3 for the last 9 months and really like the bike.
Picked it up of e-bay cheaply - had just bought a Scott P3 Sportster and just couldn't get on with it.( near mint one going cheap!)
I am doing rides of 20 -25 miles average and feel I want something better.
Do I;
1. Buy a better Trek 7. something or
2. Buy a road bike?
I am 53 years young and I do like the upright riding position of the Trek.
Last drop bars was on a "racer" when I was at school!.
Also don't want anything too flimsy that will break at the first pothole!
Also I am more a social cyclist and not interested in pure speed and comfort is important.
Also budget is about a grand.
Any advice?
