Fitting/test ridequestion

[withm]

Folks can usually ride 2 different sizes of the same bike, adjusting the saddle and such to make each fit.

Practice starting in an "orthodox" manner on your Trek 7.6 before you try the Trek 520 and you should have no problems. Have fun with the ride, really, just have fun!

I'm with Knotted on this one. Ride, ride, ride. You deserve a couple hundred miles more experience before you select the next bike. And when you ARE ready to do test rides, a spin around the parking lot really isn't going to cut it. ALL bikes feel good in the parking lot. You need to take the bike out for a 10 mile ride or so to really get a feel for the fit.
