Hi Folks,
I'm looking to upgrade to one of these bikes. I would be doing my
first century on this. I like these hybrids because I think the
geometry and handlebar setups are more comfortable for me.
Could somebody help me to compare the components between these two
bikes?

I like the suspension on the Cannondale, but I would want to switch it
out for a HeadShok Super Fatty Ultra DL so I could lock it out on the
fly (I don't think the HeadShok Slice Ultra does that). I mostly ride
on the road, but I think I want the front suspension.
I think that the gearing is about the same on both since one has a
larger 3-gear front chainring but lesser range in the rear cassette
and vise vera on the other. Is this a fair assessment?
I think I like the Trek better except for the fact that you can't lock
out the front suspension. Any opinions about these component sets or
the bikes in general?
Thanks,
Warren
