Great bike and freeing to not worry about it.

Cool.

I've always wondered if anyone every bought one of those. Kind of expensive but I love the details.

Does yours have the 2-speed hub? If so, how does it work?

Sure, I've commuted on all my bikes, including a tandem on take your stoker to work day. But the baddest setup was a Pinarello Prince that had fenders, a tubus fly rack, and these huge Ortlieb panniers. It was the mid 'oughts. I dont think I'd even heard the term "commuter bike". Those were the days.

I used to commute on a 3 speed Schwinn Stingray...but that was a long time ago and I was in grade school.

Most recently I commuted for a while on a Colnago C50..

Previously, when I had to leave my bike in the office park garage, I set up a Cannondale T800 for commuting... Never had a problem with it in the garage...it was an invisible green...
