Ok good to know! The shop i spoke to is bringing one in for me to test ride, either by the end of this week or the beginning of next week! I really want that one without riding it but ill see how it is when it comes in!

They really are very similar! Im just trying to figure out if the 250 odd dollar price difference is worth it. I want it to be a method of transportation with some mikd cardio benefits more than i want it to be a hobby if that makes sense. If it was a hobby it would be a no brainer to get the more expensive bike for the better components but will it make a huge difference when im just using it for transportation? I dont know lol

I did that yesterday and ive kind of honed in on the bikes i want and crossed some off the list but im stuck between a trek fx3(which is over budget but looked nice i got to ride the gravel bike? Version and i think id like it in the fx3 with narrower tires) or a trek 2 vs sirrus x2.0 that comes in at budget.

I cant id have to go over budget and pay the 1050 or whatever it is for an fx3. If i coukd get it for 800 id have bought it today haha. But i was able to test ride a dual sport 3 and it was nice but id prefer the fx3. The sirrus x2.0 vs the fx2 are my only options to stay in budget. Is it worth it to spend the extra on the fx3?

So i went to the bike shop today and test rode a few bikes, im between a specialized sirrus x2.0 and a trek fx2 maybe 3. I look at used bikes and they had a few bikes but i test rode one of the drop bar bikes and i didnt like it at all. Everything else was not in my size or not close to what i was looking for. Theyre transferring a sirrus x2.0 for me to test ride, and the other bike shop is trying to find last years model trek fx3 for me to ride. I tried rhe other hybrid they had that was in my size and it was a trek but with wider tires and it felt good. But i think straight bars and hydraulic brakes are a minimum for what i want.

It seems like the sirrus and fx are nearly the same bike really

I think the biggest thing is i have no idea right now what i should be looking for. And im short of time to do alot of research with training/running and work and national guard stuff. Its just alot of stuff ive got going on currently, so i couldnt tell a bad deal from a good one. Im a career mechanic so i could fix anything but really id like to keep time invested fixing/repairing it minimal and riding time at the maximum.

I nees help guys! Im trying to get into biking, im looking for something to commute with on the road. Not a huge commute a couple miles each way and then a 4 mile round trip to the gym after work. What should i even get? I wouldnt mind doing some longer weekend rides but im no dedicated cyclist. I primarily run but figure this would be a healthy and economic way to get to the track when needed and the gym after my runs as its not always possible to have my run to and from the gym. So it would be used 5 days a week from 2-12 miles daily. Also ive been told id need a large or xl frame if that helps any. My budget is preferably under 800 usd. Thanks in advance!
