Hi,
Sirrus Elite
Trek 7.3 FX
I'm new to cycling (last rode when I was in my teens over 20 years ago) so you'll have to excuse my lack of 'in-the-know' terminology in this post. Had a spin on both of these bikes today and though they both gave a different ride position they seemed fine to me. I felt more upright on the Trek, but no idea what difference that is going to make for my needs. Some riding will be nice and slow on towpaths etc with my partner, whereas other riding will be on the road for fitness, to compliment my running.
What's the difference between the specs on these two bikes? Is one much better value than the other? Also, what do carbon forks give me? The price difference is not an issue. I'm happy to change things like tyres, pedals so those differences are not an issue.
Thanks,
Dave
