+1 to Jon’s sentiment that you also look for comfort. Sounds like you’re looking at 3 hours a day in the saddle. That’s bliss on the weekend, but at the end of a long work day, you want a degree of comfort when you’re facing 90 minutes in traffic. How much comfort you need is a personal decision. I’m old, creaky and boring at parties, so I’m happiest on a 2-wheeled recliner.
