Thanks. There is a story behind this bike. I had been shopping for a commuter, errand bike and found the Vaya on the internet while doing my research. Perfect bike just hard to find. No one had them. So I settled on a Crosscheck as my second choice and found a dealer 6 hours from me who had one in stock in my size that I could ride. On the way there, the dealer called very apologetic saying that when they went to put the bike together for me to ride, they discovered that they only had the box--no bike! They had a Pacer in my size I could try so I went to check out the shop and sitting in the window was the Vaya! Only it was a size too large. They shortened the stem for me but the cockpit is just too long. I didn't think it would matter for short, 10 mile or less, trips but I constantly slide forward, push myself back, only to slide forward again. I fight it the whole time and it's not enjoyable.

I bought Cataboo's used Pacer and am using that as my commuter, errand bike now. I hate to let this beauty go but it's not enjoyable riding it. She needs to find a good home.
