Why can't you continue to ride your MTB over those distances?
Is it uncomfortable? Have you tried it yet?
I was riding my mtb up to about 80k's. The only reason I didn't
do longer rides was due to the fact I used to ride in boxer shorts
and pants - mucho chaffo!!
Unless it doesn't fit you comfortably, the MTB should be fine for
those distances. Of course, don't let me stop you buying a new
bike.. new bikes rule!!
