I'm 49...people on this forum have heard me talk about loving my Trek hybrid and riding it "like a road bike". Well, I just sold it on Ebay and am picking up my Sequoia in the next few weeks. I want a "road bike ride" but need a more upright position. Drop bars give you much more comfort in that you have options with hand placement. I rode my Small Sequoia with the adjustable stem all the way up and it felt great!!!
I, too, looked at a Sirrus, but it was so similar to the Trek 7500fx...just was not a road bike and I want a road bike! I say "go for it"...not because I did, but because if you get it now, you won't be saying things like..."but I want a REAL road bike"!
