well.... i think there is an obvious answer however i can't decide for myself. i own a 02 rfx most likely too much for the xc trail thats 9miles long. but i'm so used to it wider handle bars, quicker shifting, but heavy. there's some good size hills that i've climbed before on it but i'm thinking of taking the ole' ladies hardtail. its not much lighter maybe 7lbs max bars are much narrow to my liking and shifting is not quite as good. its a 05 fugi thrill. which on do guys and ladies recommend riding? thanks
