Guess I'm late to the debate here... but I do have one thing to add. Why do we, and I include me in the we, why do we always recommend people stick with the bike they have whenever questions like this are asked, when none of us would be riding the bikes we have now and be as happy with them as we are if we never upgraded ourselves.
