Does anyone know which hybrid bicycle(s) have gotten recent awards for best of the year from Bicycle magazine, Consumer Reports, etc? I have been looking at hybrids in the $300-500 range this week and my head is swimming! But I am so pumped for getting a new machine! Thanks! Lois PS: I live In Brookline, MA. ANyone have any *recent* good/bad experiences with the local bike shops?

3056.1 | Specialized Crossroads Cruz | ENQUE::MCGOWAN | Thu Mar 21 1996 09:21 | 10 | |
I dunno who won what, but my girlfriend rides a Specialised Crossroads Cruz. I've ridden it a few times and it's pretty snappy (relative to my mountainbike anyway). She bought it for summer riding on bicycle paths and stuff, but I brought her mountainbiking on a friends bike and she now wants to buy a mountainbike. Everything is standard about it apart from the saddle which was upgraded to the Specialised Leather Saddle you see on the M2. Shes somewhere around 5.8 in height. It's red with yellow decals. She's looking for $200 or a close offer. | |||||

Check out Highroads in Stoneham. Tough to beat their selection on MTB. I've been pretty happy with Belmont Wheel Works. Don't know about any places IN Brookline. Tim |
