Hi everyone – I’m new to the forum.
My wife and I are going to purchase a couple of new bikes soon and I wanted to get your thoughts.
We currently both have cheap mountain bikes. She wants something more upright and comfortable and I want something more street, but where I can still jump curbs and stuff.
We’ve pretty much decided on getting Cannondale, an Adventure 600 or 800 for her and a F800 for me. I really like the Bad Boy, but I can’t justify the price of the BB vs. the F800, therefore I’m going to put on more of a street tread or larger 700 rims on the F800. Also, I love the dual brake/shift and the lefty fork to way to cool.
Any other bike we should be checking out?
Thanks!
