Riding position
First road bike since my Schwinn Continental in high school 40 yrs ago !
Previously asked about Trek 2.1 2012 vs 2013.
So I have ridden both the 2012 with Sram Apex and the 2013 with Shimano. Like them both.
Now after much learning have discovered Trek has H1, H2 and H3 geometries.
In short , correct me if I am wrong the H1 is most aggressive, than H2 and least aggressive for "endurance" riding is the H3, correct.
Also the Madone 2.1 I am looking at is H2 whereas the Domane series could be considered an H3 geometry.
So for a new rider who plans on riding for an hour or 2 2-3 times a week will i feel the difference between H2 and H3 ? By endurance are they referring to hours in the saddle as opposed to 1-2 hours?
Reason i ask is i can get a Domane rather than a Madone but in a 30 minute test ride cannot tell if the Madone is too "aggressive'? In the end for a fitness non-competitive rider does it really matter?
Also in the mix is the Specialized Roubaix if i go for the "H3" geometry.
