i am looking at a fuji shiloette and a ibex corrida flat bar bike.

they are both 27 speeds and have 700c x 26 tires.

even v-brakes, are they really road bikes or just a mtn bike with road
bike
drive train and no suspension system

i have a hardtail mtn bike now, was interested in road riding, but i
don't
know if i can handle the position

thanks



FWIW
I have a Specialized Sirrus Comp, which is a flat bar model. I love it.
Super light, nice ride, but more upright than typical road bars...much
easier on the back...much slower on the downhills though...I always feel
like I want to bend forward to reduce the wind.
