>>1066047Thanks for your input. The Trek components suffer due to the carbon frame I guess. I'll rule the Trek out and it's not really as hard wearing as I like. I will be doing other leisurely rides along tow paths and cyclepaths and the option for a bit of off-road would be nice.
Just found a Saracen Hank FB as well which is basically a flat bar version of a Cycloecross which sounds perfect.
