    Kona of me (not just to provide balance). I just prefer the brand if I'm honest and Konas always seem to ride nicely.

    I used to have the Trek 7.3 fx disc and was very happy with it. Ultimately however I decided I didn't want a hybrid bike so sold it, but it served me well at getting me commuting and into cycling.
