Background: ride mainly trails -- hardtop and dirt; no single track, technical, or jumping off the side of mountains. More recreational/fitness - 12 - 20 miles every other day. The dirt trails can range from soft sand, ruds, rough gravel, etc.

I looked at both bikes, the Quick is way lighter; however I'm concern about the performance on the dirt. The shop recommended changing out the tire for more aggressive thread.

I have a TREK 8.4, it's time to buy new.

Opinions and recommendations.

Thank you.
