So I need a commuter to ride to/from work, 8 miles one-way. I was gonna just get a low-end road bike, but then I saw this guy on a mountain-bike looking thing: skinny tires, fenders, flat bars. And I realized I didn't know what to look for in a commuter bike.
I'm thinking: effecient, fairly comfy, and fendered. I'm not burly or skilled enough for a fixed or single-speed at this distance.
Commuters, what say ye? What's worked for you? What doesn't?
J-
PS: Sorry, Spats, I can't get a recumbent. My eyes suXor so I should keep my vital organs above the bumpers zipping around me.
