Several choices they made are a little odd for a serious commuter (just my own opinion). I do admire Seven road bikes a great deal.
Am I correct in that you can only see pix of the Parcours for now?

A bit beefy--when I commuted I loved the lightness of my Jamis Coda, and after riding it for a few years, I wanted dropped bars for my commuter. My commute was on the long side--14 miles each way--and I would have liked drops.

Yeah, I'm a little luke-warm on them. Perhaps they are okay for bombing around Boston. And those handlebars don't really "do it" for me for where and how I commute. I don't think, anyway. I'd have to try them, perhaps.

But yeah, when I win the lottery, I'll get a Seven commuter.... built up just the way I want it......2007 Seven ID8 - Bontrager InForm
