Schwinn Sporterra or Btwin Rockrider 5.2

[Nitin Jain]

Hi All,

I know you have already discussed a lot about it. And based on the
discussion, I have read on this group, I have filtered my choice to
two bikes - One hybrid and other MTB which are within my budget and
seems to be good.

My height is 169 cms. My weight currently is 62.5 KG but you can
expect it to be anywhere between 60-69 KG.

This is going to be my first cycle in last five years. Before that i
used to ride very basic BSA cycle in my graduation days. I am
currently going to use this cycle for cross training / fitness purpose
(up to 30-40 KM) on two days of week for next 3-4 months. I will like
to have at least few 100-KM-ride after that. I will like to
participate in Bangalore Duathlon with the same cycle next year (this
is the reason I will like to go for hybrid bike instead of MTB). I
wont be able to budget for road bike. :(

What will be the speed difference with same effort on Rockride
compared to Sporterra in a 20 KM race?

Thanks
Nitin
