Thanks for the suggestions, Patrick. I had a 54cm Roadini, which didn't feel good, possibly because it was too big for me. That model does seem to be the obvious choice, but I'm a bit wary of trying one in 50cm, because the size may not have been the problem. The Homer is the other one that seems to be more of a road bike than a trail bike. But then you also mention the Sam, which seems to be described as a country bike but also good on the road. So much to consider. On Saturday, March 2, 2024 at 7:46:46 PM UTC-5 Patrick Moore wrote:
