How about something like the Trek DualSport? I’m a roadie, but I use my DualSport for “normal” rides with friends. I just lock out the suspension. And if I do see a trail, it has decent enough...

I agree. I have a Trek DS 2 and it never sees dirt. The suspension fork is useful for the horrible roads in my area.

But affordable versions of this bike already exist: fitness bikes. There are...

The Canyon is a great deal. You hardly find a 105 equipped bike for that price. The Canyon is basically a road bike with flat bars, although the geometry is somewhat different. You could always...

This sounds like me. I'm a roadie, but wasn't really into it last year so I picked got a Trek DS2. This year I'm less into my road bike and more into the hybrid, so much so that I'm looking for...

The butt soreness can be resolved with a good pair of padded riding shorts or bibs. And I would say the neck soreness is normal at first if you haven't ridden in a while, but could also be a poor...

Thanks for these suggestions everyone. I went with DrIsotope's suggestion and got the PDW Sodapop fenders. Unfortunately we got a decent amount of snow here so it's going to be a few days before I...

I agree with this. I was torn between an FX and DS2, and I picked the DS2. I'm 90% on the pavement, and the suspension fork is awesome. I've ridden the same road with the fork locked out, and no...

Probably higher margins on the Haro. Haro was once a top brand.

A good local bike shop is interested in you buying the bike you like the most and won’t push you to another bike. I’d shop...
