Reply With QuoteOK...after lots of thought, visiting other bike shops, browsing online (at work, shhhhhh....), I decided to go with the Kona Sutra. I just LOVE how the bike felt, and I think I will be happy with it. I have a feeling the Sutra will be "that bike" I will never sell. Note: I even had a dream that I was riding it around town...how neurotic is that!!! It must be love, right?
LBS had to special order my size, so now I'm counting the days until it arrives...

If you're going to be riding in rain, snow, mud, muck, and the like, then disk brakes would be a good idea.
If not, you don't need them, in my opinion.
I have them on my winter bike, and I like how they hold up in the snow. But then, not too many people ride in the snow (I do, I have studded tires for the ice, but people think I'm a bit looney).
Oh, and I REALLY like Jamis bikes. My commuter is a Coda Comp and it's just fantastic.Last edited by tulip; 07-20-2006 at 06:24 AM.
