I dont know if is a good idea to select a bike based on weight, I have actually choose these two bikes, the 7.5 FX as I mentioned in the first post and the sirrus comp, based in other criterias like type of bikes , frame desing and components, use I will give them etc. They result to be so similar than the weight could be a good pusher to choose, but if you think I am doing something insane or stupid asking this, or you think I should travel cities all over spain in instead of asking here for anyone's experience with this bikes.......PLEASE KICK ME OUT OF THE FORUM, I will be thanking you for the rest of my like and I will never ask or buy bycicles again without your supervision
I <3 Seville. It actually one of my favorite places in Europe.
Which gets to my point ... why buy a Trek in Europe? This is actually a serious question because the number of dealer and options are significantly smaller. I wouldn't consider buying a Trek in Germany, Sweden or Denmark (where I've lived in Europe.) It's not that their bad bikes or anything, but the service/dealer options are much more limited.
Spain has some interesting bikes like BH and Oreba.
