Thanks, I'll keep that in mind! As it is a bike style I'm not familiar with, I'm doing my best to find something locally though (and very preferably used)

Yeah, I stopped by Performance Bike on the way home just to visualize what they had. Even the 15" F@E was as intimate with my crotch as my road bikes, and I ride the biggest thing I can get on in that realm. Bit too close for comfort on something I expect to need to dismount much faster than a road bike. I was looking at the BD offerings too, but as I mentioned above this is one purchase I'd like to buy locally if possible. If not, Bike Island's scratch and dent offerings are quite attractive!
