Thanks a lot. Thats what I was wondering. I guess the biggest problem with the comfort mountain is that it is a slow ride. I have seen some of the bikes and I have tried to read up on the feedback to cyclocross bikes but I find it is hard to find feedback on them. I dont know if these are bikes that are just coming into the picture or if they are bikes that not many people ride. The two bikes I have been looking at are the Bianchi Axis and the Cannondale Cyclocross. I know fit means a lot in a bike or everything but in the over all view which of these two bikes do you feel would be a good cyclocross bike, that for the money would be a good all around bike? I read just about all of your feed backs because it seems to me you write what the people are asking and you seem to have a lot of time on different bikes. I loved the pics you posted. Wish I was there.
