Using a full suspension mtb on the road, for riding with wife?
My wife always wants to ride in highly populated areas that have a bunch of intersections and other obstacles to ride over/through. I am riding a Specialized Roubaix (when riding with her) and still get beat up from this form of riding (or lack there of).
While I am happy to be riding with her, I enjoy riding my Tarmac on a long, fast ride instead of all of this starting/stopping, and riding over all of the curbing etc... She views this type of riding as "boring".
I wonder how a full suspension mountain bike would do for riding with her? I'd put slicks on it and also drop bars...
