Realized I forgot to mention that this is about a MTB - Specialized Hard Rock.
Can't say I've ever noticed much of any difference. Was curious if anyone else had a chance to compare.
Cargo bike...is that a specific kind of bike...or just the bike you use for hauling "cargo"?
Noticed you're in Eugene. Lived in Hillsboro for ~6 yrs. (Now back in SF Bay Area). Miss the beauty that is OR

Oh, that reminds me, my cargo bike just ate the derailleur. 20x4.5 on the rear, and I've been having troubles with derailleur sizes. So, I need to get something wrapping a bit more chain installed. I have some ideas in mind.
