I'm in Toronto and there is a bacchetta dealer about 20 minutes away from me.....That's where i tried out the Giro26...i also tried out the corsa....the giro26 felt really comfortable and speedy..not as fast as the corsa.....but i did like the option of being able to change to a thinner tire on the giro26 and the price.......at this point, i'm down to 3 choices, the Giro26, the Lightning phantom and the Rans F5.......but i'm pretty sure the rans is strictly for road.........so the giro26 seems the best at this point..............i'm so excited about getting one, i just don't want to jump into getting one too quickly, so i really do apreciate of you giving me the tips..thanks
