or downtube 7 speed full suspension only $300.
History: I got a boardwalk s1 about 5 weeks ago and like it a lot. However, I have already peaked on speed and distance. I didn't think this would happen. I haven't ridden in 15 years. I was a runner but injury has ended that for good. I find my normal cadence is about as fast as this bike can pedal, and find myself wanting to ride farther and faster. I don't think upgrading is worth the cost and I don't have the time. My riding is for working out (fun rides) mostly, then utility, ie: going to the store. I've kind of broken it down to these bikes ( need folder for space). Will any of them work for the long run for me? I don't want to need another bike in 3 months. I also like the big apple tires for rough roads. Boardwalk with 1.5 " tires doesnt handle it well. Thanks for any advise.
