I have been riding this bike around.
It's great for DJ and a bit of trail, and with some skinnies, it's not too bad on the road. But I have found that it is too small, and gets uncomfortable on longer xc/road rides.
I also have a DH bike.
My mom constantly nags me about how inefficient mountain bikes are, and I think she has finally got to me. So I have been thinking about a cyclocross bike. One option I like is the MONK by SOULCYCLES.Monk
Then there is always a xc bike or a singlespeed.ss
Somehow I think that a xc bike is too much for xc, commuting to school and transportation.
My question is... How much can a cx bike handle? Can I ride fast on trails, as long as I am extremely smooth? Can I bunnyhop onto ledges? What can you do on a cx bike short of breaking it?
The hardtail is just too much for the road, ok on trail, and great at SST or whatever, same with the DH bike, but I think I need something just for xc and road.
I know there is another thread on this right now, but I wanted as much attention as I could get .
