Might be time for something lighter
All,
We're on a Cannondale T2, but some of these longer, hilly rides are getting tough at my age. I know from upgrading my single that bike weight does matter. I weigh 170 and I'm 5'9", in front, my son is about 130 and he's 5'10". In our area the hills we go on are probably not more than 8%, and the gears on the T2 work fine (Shimano 105, 12-30, 53/39/30). Looking at Co-motion, looking at Calfee. Are there any other brands I should be looking at? We're not too far from Tandems East and we got the T2 there so might be talking to Mel too.
Not an e-bike.
Thanks in advance,
Brian O.
