New Bike Advice

Hello,

My current hybrid is 10 years old and getting pretty past it.

On the lookout for something new.

Criteria (rated in order of importance...)

(1) Comfort
(2) Comfort
(3) Comfort

Bike will not be used for commuting (takes me 30 mins door to door motorway driving !), but instead a mix of local trips to the shops & leisure cycling, with a kids tagalong attached now and again.

Was looking at a Trek Navigator 3.0 or a Marin Stinson/Redwoods - however those Cannondale city bikes look pretty good too.

Budget - not sure really, proabably £750 max ?

    I reckon you need a folding bike, but convert it to a fixie. Then put drop bars on it.
  • Ta,

    Got a foldie already (Trek F400) - wouldn't fancy linking a tagalong to it tho !
