Can someone give me some guidance?
I test rode that 07 tass non-disc and thought it was a really nice bike, until I bought my Iron Horse Warrior Comp for $420. The Tass felt heavier, I was stretched out over the frame more road bike style (I believe Fisher bikes tend to have longer TTs, correct me if I'm wrong).
The IH comes with full deore and hayes disc brakes, feels lighter, rides lighter. I am touting this bike every chance I get b/c it is a true steal at the price. You can do a little of everything with it.
