I Need a Commuter!

[ndwarzski]

Hi! I recently purchased my bike (January) and I love it. I bike about 16 mi/day and a little on the weekends (the longest was an apprx. 30 mi. organized ride one weekend). I really think this bike is great. Some people have written that the bike is a little heavy and that is probably pretty accurate, but by the time you put the fenders, rack, lights and your bag (which will weigh a ton) on the bike it does not matter. I mean, do you really want to race to work? I am very comfortable and would recommend this bike as a commuter to anyone.

I've got a Jamis Coda Comp. Without the panniers it is 28 pounds. I just weighed my locks and they are 5.5 pounds! Anyhow, last commute I averaged 14+mph to work and 13+ back home (more uphill). If nothing else, it makes me feel that much faster when I ride the road bike
