That is my problem now too! If i could go with a rigid fork i would but all the bikes ive tried are too "road feeling" for me. I want a more upright position like the roam. I really like the feel of the roam. Even if i got it, i would try and make it a bit more upright. My main concern is if i buy an escape, will raising the stem to the highest degree be the feel that i want? Because i feel the roam just needs to be a degree or more to get the right fit. Im stuck!
