Hello,
Been doing a short commute (< 7 miles) flat/small rolling hills, near Boston, on a 15-year old Klein mountain bike at the end its lifecycle.
I test drove a single speed but it's not for me. Looking for something faster, but not as fragile as a road bike. $1000 range. No need for a triple-ring or suspension or a comfy seat. Prefer a straight bar, and I like the idea of disc brakes. I wear a backpack so I don't needs racks, etc.
Saw a couple that looked interesting, although they had triple-rings...
Scott Sub 20
Trek Mendota
Any other models I should be looking at?
Thanks!
