Wow... seems to be a consensus of opinion against Trek and for Specialized, albeit it limited feedback ... any Trek lovers out there that want to speak up? Any Gary Fisher fans want to chime in?

I have no problem with Specialized ... it is our second choice based on our online research and limited knowledge. Don't know that they do the hybrid thing, though, which has driven much of our decision-making. Our planned use for bikes seems to lend itself well to hybrid over true mountain bikes.

Thanks,

Bill
