Specialized Sirrus

Hi! from Japan.

Now, Specialized Sirrus is popular in Japan for commuting to work or school, and for fitness. How
is it in your country?

Could you tell me your upgrade of Sirrus?

Best regards,

First thing I did when I bought my Sirrus Pro was turn the handle bar stem upside down. 2nd thing
was to get rid of the Body Geometry saddle.

I'm in the US. Don't know how popular it is here, but I have one that I bought a year ago. I use it
for recreational and fast riding. I have a cheaper Giant Cypress DX that I use for commuting. I've
been cycling for 2 years. Eventually, I'll buy a road bike for recreational riding and my sirrus
will become my commuting bike. I like my sirrus a lot. Much better than the other hybrid I had. A
bit closer to a road bike. I've only upgraded the pedals to cages and straps.

John, Thank you for your reponse.

I have a 2002 model Sirrus a1. I also turnded my handle bar stem upside down for obtaining my riding
position. I have a plan on replacing the pedal and BB. I will use Shimano UN72(3) as my BB, it is
Deore LX grade.

By the way, if you know a rider's club, user's club, or mailing list for Sirrus. could you tell me?

Thank you.

I also like my 2002 model Sirrus a1 a lot. I knew the pleasure of riding with flat bar bike like
Sirrus. Next, I will purchase a road bike with a drop bar in near future.

By the way, if you know any community related with Sirrus on the internet, could you tell me? I
sometime use Official Specialized Web page.

Thank you.
