Hello everyone. I have analyzed my needs, budget and the local availability of various bikes, and, after much research, I have finally narrowed my choices down to the KONA JAKE and the BIANCHI VOLPE.
I think both are equal to the task of navigating urban potholes and running the occasional dirt trail (and maybe half a century if I prepare right), all with relatively more speed than my 15-year old mtb while affording a nice mix of postures and providing a good workout.
I would appreciate hearing from all informed bikers out there, who have an opinion on either or a preference.
Thanks much.
