[...] snip They're both by the same manufacturer (Trek). I'd recommend going to the local bike shop (LBS) and giving them both a spin. Buy whichever one you like better. I was in a similar situation with the Trek 7500FX and the Fischer Utopia, took them both out and bought the Utopia. Similar price range and market, but different "feel." Bill |

yup what bill said. I rode the 7100 & 7200 and bought the Fisher Tiburon and I love it! Enjoy the ride. -- swimmeronwheels |
