It's being a pretty good bike so far, for what it is -- your basic, entry level MTB, with 1100 miles on it.
Fred, if you find yourself riding mostly on asphalt or concrete roads and you like the nice long rides and speed is somewhat of a factor, then you would do well to just go ahead and get the road bike. Performance bike owns Nashbar and Supergo. From the other posts on bike forums, Performance is going to cut loose from Specialized and Giant. That means there's a lot of good deals out there with Performance with these two manufacturers, even now before Christmas.
