Thanks,
Any technical specifics as to why, or is it just the wheel base and fork? I'd like to be able to learn some more specifics about these things so I can understand their technicalities better. I doubt I'll be able to recognize parts by appearance when I browse, but it'd be nice to be able to get close.
I did manage to find a shop in the city specializing in Fuji and Giant bikes thanks to that search though, so thank you. How does Fuji compare to some of the brands listed above (reputation, parts, etc) or are they all relatively similar? Specialized, Trek, Kona, Cannondale and Norco. More importantly, how does it compare to the Sirrus Elite I have on hold? Should I pass on it?
Here's a clearer picture of the terrain; when the path is paved (the majority of the pathway), it will be similar to this:
The unpaved pathways will be similar to this and only take up the first little bit of the ride (or last of the round back):
And the above is primarily due to damage of the paved pathways nearby,
