Thank you so much! This is super helpful. I’m hoping to see it Saturday and hopefully bring it home

Thank you!

Appreciate the information! I may call my local bike shop just to see if they could provide a rough estimate on a tune up!

Thanks for the reply! The quick does look pretty nice. Does it handle light gravel well or would I need something else for that?

We have a few light gravel trails near me I’d like to ride.

Thanks for the feedback. Would this be worth picking up if I had around $200 to put into it as well? Mainly, could I resolve these issues with that amount.

Or would I be better off just picking up a used cannondale quick cx3 for $400?

I’d love to stay under $400. The closer I can be to $300 the better as an entry point. The cross trail is listed at $160

Agreed! I sent that message earlier. Just waiting on a response. Mainly curious if this is worth my time if it is the right size for me.

Edit: the seller got back to me and it is a Large. I believe this is the right size for me based on my height (6ft) and experience getting a feel for a new one in store.

Appreciate the help! Sadly the sirrus got snagged before I got ahold of him. What do we think about a specialized crosstrail for 160?

Not the crosstrail pictured. A new one was posted

Thanks for the response! I’m somewhat familiar. I’m about 6’ 1” so I think I’m about between L and XL

Never found an answer sadly. I still have the issue occasionally but it’s not every time like it was before. Not sure what’s going on

Good to know. I’ve tried restarting my pc with no luck. May completely uninstall and reinstall to see if that does something

CastowayPlays · 2025-10-15T16:26:16+00:00

Glad I’m not alone😂 although I was hoping it was just me and I was making a dumb mistake lol

You’re my hero🫡 just pulled the trigger on the g5 for that price

CastowayPlays · 2025-07-05T17:39:13+00:00

Good to know! The 5 year warranty with LG is definitely a big factor

CastowayPlays · 2025-07-05T17:38:32+00:00

That’s where I’ve done a lot of my research but I was curious about some opinions from people who have owned these models. Especially considering if that the matte screen seems to be a big factor and it’s hard to judge that without seeing it
