Hi all….
Sorry, this is a really basic question but I can’t seem to find a proper answer…
What is the difference between Trail bikes and XC bikes?
I ride mainly in the Peak District, generally between 20 – 30 mile rides, nothing too technical, no jumps or big drops, and I’m not planning on racing, although some of the stuff we rude over can be pretty rocky at times. I’ve currently got a 2003 Kona Caldera but it’s reached the end of it’s life so I’m looking for a replacement. I’ll probably use the Kona to tinker with and rebuild it over time.
For the replacement I like the look of the Cube Reaction GTC SL (its only 10.3kg) and I think it’s a XC bike. Do you think this would be suitable for the type of rides I do?
Cheers,
Pete.
