Well, I can't get a pic to load up right now but I finally got my DS2! Of course I jacked up my back this week and can't really get out on it right now but I love it. Based on what I've read on here,...

That looks better "in person" than it does on the website, which btw...anybody else think Giant's website could use a little help? Regardless, great looking bike! I like that you can remove that...

Thanks for your replies! I'm tracking right there with you. Only thing I really noticed was how the gears shifted a little easier, which as the Trek guy explained, was due to them being closer...

Sounds like you were in the exact same position as me. I decided today for multiple reasons that I'm going to go with Trek. I will take a spin on an FX2 Disc to see how much more you feel without the...

Since I posted it on the Trek DS thread, I'll put it here as well. I test road a DS 2 and 3 yesterday and then a Roam 2. Very similar ride and you get better components for the money with Giant....

Took a test ride on the DS2 and 3 yesterday, loved it!! Unfortunately the DS2 was a larger size so it was kinda tough to do a great side by side comparison and figure out if the 3 was worth the extra...

Don't you love when you lose something you spent 20 min typing? Haha... Unfortunately I'm at least 3 hours away from Greenville, which is apparently a much more bike friendly town. I'm down in...

Yeah, with such a price difference I feel like that may trump all the other factors (even a brand new '18 Giant Roam 2 would be $600)... Both shops offer 1 year of free service (granted I should...

Alright, so I did some test riding today... A Specialized Sirrus and Crosstrail. Sirrus felt extremely stiff and awkward. Enjoyed the comfort the bigger tires and suspension offered no doubt.

Thanks so much for that that thorough and thoughtful post! You know what's crazy, is I've been to 5 local shops now and haven't been on a single bike. Other than the Trek store (first stop and...

My only limitations are what my local stores carry. I have a friend at a shop that carries Norco which is why I've focused on them. They also seem to fit well with my price range. Then we've got...

I didn't see my reply post, so I'm doing it again. I was confused on your description about the Norco. The one I'm looking at doesn't have any red options and it's not a freewheel. Here's the link:...
