As far as flatbar/fitness type bikes go, I don't think there are many better spec'd than the 7.7FX. Others to consider would include:Kocsis said:Trying to find a rather stable, but still quick and comfortable bike for my wife. Couple of friends suggested above; seems quite nice but wanted to compare to others with flatbar and comparable ride. Any suggestions?
Good point on the WSD (Women's Specific Design?)...that could be a major factor in choosing this bike.Insight Driver said:The Trek 7.6 FX WSD might be more suitable as it's WSD.
I've got a Trek 7.2FX, lowest in the Trek FX line of bikes, and I love it. I ride it to school and back every day, and I rode it in the BP MS-150 (182 miles over two days) and it performed beautifully. It definitely outperforms its cost.Kocsis said:Trying to find a rather stable, but still quick and comfortable bike for my wife.

The Cannondale Bad Boy comes to mind also. With the Headshock fork and a set of 700 x 28's on it, it is a sweet ride. I tried one for a test ride, but my better half didn't think I need another ride. I still disagree...Kocsis said:Trying to find a rather stable, but still quick and comfortable bike for my wife.

I'm gonna 2nd the recommendation on the Spec Sirrus Pro, or Spec Sirrus Women's. But, the 7.7 is a sweet bike.Walrus said:As far as flatbar/fitness type bikes go, I don't think there are many better spec'd than the 7.7FX. Others to consider would include:
