Trek 7.4 FX: To disc or not to disc (weight issue)
I have decided on a Trek 7.4 FX to replace my totaled 2002 Trek 4500 MTB.
The guy at my local LBS called today and said they just received one of these in my size, however it is the disc brake version. I actually wanted the non-disc version due to added weight.
I don't do much riding in the rain (at least not on purpose), so I don't think I necessarily need the discs.
Does anyone here know just how much weight disc brakes add to the 7.4? Any other handling issues (I would think not, but doesn't hurt to ask).
Thanks.
Oh, and the only reason I'm even considering the disc version is that delivery of the non-disc version is at least several weeks out, and I can buy the disc version tomorrow.
