Hi everyone,
(Sorry in advance for the English)
I’m looking to buy a new bike for commuting (15km daily) and for all-round usage (shopping, weekend travel, etc).
I currently ride a Gazelle Ambiance which I feel is really heavy (and probably has too big a frame for me).
I also wanted something with a more sporty posture without going into road bike territory.
On first hand market I think that would be something like a Batavus Dinsdag, for example.
I do not exclude the second hand market and there I saw the Trek Dublin. This, I understand, is an older model from Trek, with the Gates belt drive and the Nexus 8.
It’s a good looking bike as well, so it caught my eye.
What’s the general consensus on this bike? Things I’d like to improve comparing to my current drive is a lighter, smoother ride. I never thought my Gazelle was any good on either of those things.
