It's time to buy my first bike in 20 years and I have narrowed it down to either a specialized Sirrus or a Specialized Crosstrail, but I can't decide. My plan is to bike about as much street as gravel, but also sometimes on forest trails. It does not necessarily have to go very, very fast, but of course I want it to be fun. I'm not going to commute, but I can add that I live in a town with (too) many steep slopes and I'm 40+ if that means anything regarding the choice. What do you think are the pros / cons of Sirrus vs Crosstail? And what should I choose as a beginner when it comes to version. Is Sport enough or should I choose Elite? At the moment I'm leaning towards the Crosstrail Sport. I would really appreciate some input.
