I've been researching what the next bike to buy is, looking at the Schwinn Moab, and I have heard that SRAM components are almost better than Shimano. I have not liked Schwinns much in the past, but those were low, low end bikes(read, Kmart). So how is it? Is the Schwinn Moab as tough and versitile as a Tassajara?

SRAM is good stuff so that won't be a problem,
Shimano is also good stuff and won't be a problem...
