Roads here are terrible. They do have WTs left for sale:at bd
While it is a little more money, I would rather spend it and have a product that works well and will last than get something that has a higher chance of failing/disappointing.
I appreciate your feedback! In short, no one said anything bad about the bikes I mentioned (maybe being polite?) but no one said anything good about them either... lol
If I roughly double my budget I can get in the game with something that should last a long time....
