I visited my local bike store and all they carry is trek and they recommended the trek cross rip 1. Any thoughts on the recommendation? I have also been looking online and have found a few bikes that I am interested in: jamis renegade exile, specialized diverge A1, giant revolt 3, giant anyroad 2, and raleigh merit 2. Does anyone have any thoughts on these bikes or things I should be aware of?
