hi, im quite a noob in terms of the technical aspects of biking an was in need of some help.
this summer im doing a tour of italy (from nice to scicily) and will be taking all my stuff with me in panniers. i will be doing roughly 8 hours of cycling a day and about 80 miles
i have a basic gt aggressor 3.0 at the moment and have been recieving alot of different advice
one which has popped up alot is get a cyclocross as it is rugged light weight and quite fast
although i have been suggested upgrading mine, with rigid forks and drop handle bars
what i would like to know is,
would it be better to simply buy a cyclocross
or upgrade mine??
would the extra money be worth it??
many thanks
stefan
