    I don't need it, I can't have it, I can't afford it, it would upset my other bikes, but I so WANT it! Don't even know why, but there is something about it - think it's a case of love at first sight!

    It's simple, it's understated and it's gorgeous!!!!

    One day, I'm going to buy a cottage in a small village and become its idiot!

    My son has a Schwinn Cutter that looks very similar to that. He won it at the Tour De Cure.

    There there. It's going to be alright.

    But just in case - may I suggest a 12-step program?

    By charity, goodness, restraint, and self-control men and woman alike can store up a well-hidden treasure -- a treasure which cannot be given to others and which robbers cannot steal. A wise person should do good. That is the treasure that cannot be lost.

    You've come to the wrong place if you want to be talked out of it. I now own a titanium Merlin. The only thing I got from the members of TE was enabling.

    With that being the case: I love it too! I have a single speed and it's great for commuting and zipping around town on it. That one looks like it would go sooooo many places. You just need to think about not extending yourself.

    Don't Do It, Don't Do It!

    Is that what you wanted to hear? I did it a few months ago. Bought a single speed from Bikes Direct, its a BLAST! (you should do it!).
