Cyclocross, Tricross and Crosstrail, what's the difference between them?
Cyclocross is a general term.
Then way I think of it...
One has a "Road Bike" and a "MTB".
A "Hybrid" is a cross between the Road bike and MTB, usually with 700c tires, but more related to a MTB, often with front shocks and flat bars. And, for whatever reason, often "low end".
A "Cyclocross Bike" is also a cross between a Road bike and MTB, but taking more from the Road bike, usually with drop bars, "brifters", and many quality road components.
Tricross is a Specialized brand product that is a Cyclocross bike.
Crosstrail is a Specialized brand product that is a Hybrid bike.
