Yeah man... Having only a road bike for the last few years I've been wanting something I could more comfortably take on some of the rails-to-trails type paths in my area. This has kind of surpassed my expectations in a very short time. What are the odds that someone would make basically the bike I was considering? Finding an old cheap MTB (adverts I've been able to find on this model call it an ATB, which I guess would've been more accurate) adding some drops and more road oriented gearing. What's more, I almost buckled and bought a gravel bike for the purpose, but I don't think that would have made me as happy as this has. There's something to be said about riding a bike that I would have thought was cool when I was a kid in the 80s.
