From the few reviews I've read, I'd say the 1200C sounds better.

But when calling various bike shops to check on availability and pricing, they say go with the Sequoia as a better fork and handle bars. But from what I've read, it also sounds like it breaks down more?

I have an 2 year old Trek 820 right now, but need to upgrade as I'm "outgrowing" the local rail trails so to speak. What would you recommend.

The Sequoia breaks down more? What components specifically? I've had minor issues with mine but nothing that I would not expect from any bike in it's price range.

Both are nice bikes from reputable makers. Pick the one you enjoy riding better.

The 1200c has better components than the comparably priced Sequoia.
