The kids will grow and you may find you would like/need a trailer...for my utility run needs I like having a triple up front for the gear range it gives me...a nice high end to get there and a nice low end to get back with a fully loaded trailer (150+- lbs.) and panniers. Our grocery runs are 22 mi rt. - our dog food runs are closer to 29 mi rt....so I want all the gears I can spin. Congrats on moving into the utility bike world!!
