    I'm shopping for a hybrid and have narrowed my selection to a Giant Cypress LX, Trek 7300 and a Specialized Crossroads Elite.

    When it comes to frame size one group insists the 18.5 frame is right because I have a 2-3 inch clearance, the other group says 18.5 is right for a MTB but a hybrid should fit closer and I need a 20-21 frame. Both seem comfortable. 6'1" with 32" Inseam

    Then there is the quill vs hub stem debate.

    Thanks

    If you want suspension try the Felt Trevisa: http://www.felt.de/felt/main.php4?Mag=1&Marke=1&Land=1&Wgr=1&Rubrik=193&Artnr=art_trevisa_men_2003&Jahr=2003

    Or no suspension, the SR71, 81,91 flat bar racing bikes: http://www.feltracing.com/HOME.html

    I bought a SR81 2 weeks back after finding a MTB with slicks, similar to the giant, was too limiting on the road. The Giant Perigee may be worth a look also.

    cheers
