Is there an aluminum bike out there similar to the Salsa Fargo? One with drop bars and the ability to put wider mountain bike tires on it? Everything I look at is street/racing/hybrid or mountain bikes. You can't put drop bars on a mountain bike which would be perfect and my hybrid doesn't hold up on trails.

The only reason I ask is that I was riding my son's Rockhopper to check over for some gearing problems and realized his bike was SO much lighter than my Fargo even though it's a size 21. I was hitting speeds of 18 mph with ease.

I adore my Fargo, but sometimes it would be nice to have something similar in an aluminum bike. I have a mountain bike (Mamba) which I also love, but riding for miles isn't easy on flat bars.
