I feel the front shock, weight, and gearing are all leading to me using a lot of extra energy and overall being quite a bit slower.
Budget is tight...looking to spend around $6-700. From what I've seen there are some quality 5-6 year old bikes out there in that range, but only entry level hybrids. Also, used and new hybrids seem to be hard to find around here at the moment.
