Was thinking of this one that wouldn’t break the bank. Most of my riding is on concrete trails and some surfaces are pretty uneven (bumps). 30-50 mi per week.

For the type of riding you describe you have the wrong bike. You should look into getting CX bike instead.

That’s been a thought as well, I cross a lot of roads at times (stop/start) depending on my route. Sometimes more neighborhood riding and others “trail” so long stretches is uncommon. It’s a jogging and bike trail so speed is limited. I feel my current bike gives me versatility and a good workout.

Crappy video but you get the gist. There’s 70 mi of these trails in Kingwood

LINKProbably something like this if mostly riding bike paths. Will roll much faster and smoother than big knobby MTB tire.

I have these, but it doesn't look like they are in 29"
