Make that one more vote for the Torker LX. The CX is what I learned on, but it's about useless after you learn. The LX is much more functional with a much better saddle and stronger wheelset.
I once rode my 24 inch LX 40 miles in a day. 😄
on 150's?
I just put 150's on my LX 26er, and I have a pair of 127's ready and waiting for when I get the hang of the 150's. The 26er comes with 170's........lame!
