I have two "road" bikes (both are cyclocross bikes). One is a compact double and set up with clipless and narrower tires and a computer, no fenders/rack. It's my fast bike. The other is a triple and has full commuter kit and lights and wider tires and will soon have honkin' huge platform BMX pedals just cuz I like them.

Anything I'd've done with my hybrid I can do with my cx commuter. Except she's still too new for me to feel comfortable locking her up to an outside rack while I go grocery shopping. I fret...
