Hi all,

As per my last post, I have been searching for a replacement to my 90's cromo marin larkspur which I use for 2 purposes

5 mile daily office commute (all on road)
weekend light trails with childseat (and 2.5 yr old) on the back wheel

I feel that a hybrid is the way to go, not too sloppy on the road, but sturdy enough on light trails with my daughter on it too.

I have seen a 'used once' trek 7.3 fx for sale locally for 60% of the new rrp...

What are your guys thoughts on the bike? Is it up to the job?

Crucially will it suffice in all weathers (silly snow excepted!) whilst still being relatively pacey?

Sorry to ask, but given that I had a 20 yr old hybrid, and have built a fixie using a 70s 431 tourer, I am a little behind the latest...

Many thanks
