Well, I meant faster in that other bikes, like the Navigator, seemed to be slow and Sunday-stroll-ish. If that makes any more sense. They're both about an hour away, so I'm trying to make somewhat of a descision without the drive, though that has proven difficult Here's the Cannondale Here's the Trek (is it ok to link that?) The Cannondale guy just emailed me back and said that the C has shocks in the seat and front, where the FX does not. And that it's more upright and heavier. It sounds like the difference between the Trek 7200 I looked at and the FX. The salesman was leaning me towards the FX, but I didn't get to ride them, as it was raining and I didn't want to go back and waste his time, since I'm not going to buy from them. Thanks for your help. I should probably just make the drive, eh?
