Specialized Crosstrail Comp Disc
Trek 8.6 DS or 8.5 DS
Giant Roam XR
I had a chance to ride the Specialized. Quick bike! Haven't had a chance to ride the Giant or Trek's yet.
Or have any other suggestions? Thinking $1000 to $1500 price range.

Few weeks ago I got the Crosstrail Expert Disc...just a slight upgrade from the Comp so I assume they ride about the same.
Love the bike. I like the front suspension eventhough most people prefer rigid. I do some gravel and light off road so I just like to have a bit of play there.
Don't know how the Trek and Giant stack up, but I do give the Specialized two thumbs up.
