They are nice for riding down to the local watering hole and back but, and I agree with you Mike, how practical would it be to ride 300-400 miles on?



I used to put a lot of miles on hardtail bikes back when that was what a poor kid could get. When it was what you had you just did it because you wanted/needed to ride. I loved the old bikes I've had over the years, but I really don't think I'd do that now as long as I have something that is easier on the bum.
