Hello to all.

As for Trek FX shifting, I think I tried FX 7.1, $430. However, I thought it would have been better if the bike shop had better people. He just pumped the tire and said try it. He did not tune up or anything like that. By now, I have been to about 7 different bike shops and I can say that staff of bike shop makes a huge difference in buying or helping or trying out, much like ones in car dealers.

I bought Specialized Syrrus based on following factors:
1. It was the lightest, on the scale it read 25.01 lb.
2. It shifted ok but smooth.
3. The guy offered me 10% discount and free water bottle and rack for it.
4. He genuinely tried to sell me bike.
So, I bought it at $449 plus fenders and tax total was $500.

Now, I have a nice bike but I need to get better to keep up with my bike.

Thank you all for reading and help.

Merry Christmas
