    Same here. It was like "Oh, it's an actual bike-bike."

    But no, it's nice looking bike.

    rather utilitarian looking, but it does look like a good design. I want a nice road bike to replace my mountin bike. I should post pictures and maybe trade for something???

    Very nice

    Speaking of bicycles....I should probably get mine out of the garage and start riding.

    That looks great. Now that the weather looks like it is breaking I have pulled out my Trek to get it ready. They make a really nice bike.

    Have fun on it and stay safe.

    it's very utilitarian. not the cheapest, but it's built very well and is quite light. also, i dig the single-speed thing a LOT.

    Nice. Similar to the Cannondale badboy single speed I've had my eye on for a while.

    I have a GT Peace 29're single speed that I am thinking of changing the gearing and tires on to make it a bit more road friendly in the meantime.

    I peddled a similar bike recently made by Specialized. It was good ride, but the wife said no. Something about a Great Recession.

    I hate it when she is right.

    Ride it to work to save on gas/gym membership. It can pay for itself that way if you can fight the bike ad.

    I wish I could- my commute is 30 miles if I take highways, and much more if I avoid the scarier roads on a bike. :( My previous job, at 2.5 miles, was much more conducive to a commute.

    it was about 500 bought locally. That's comparable to most online prices I've seen.

    Nice. The wife has been wanting to get bikes. Might have to look into that one.
