For me, a commuter is a cheap bike I do not worry about locking up. Crime is low here, that is not the issue, but I feel bad beating up nice frames..but paint is paint and can always be repainted later? My things do not stay pretty long, I've been out on my BJ Audax End End just a few times (~50 some miles outdoors - a lot more on the trainer this winter..) and you would be surprised at the amount of road rash - the stove baked enamel is pretty, but not durable :)
My current commuter is a cheapo frame so I do not feel bad at all. It would be nice if the commuter could also be a cruiser, but unfortunately this bike is a commuter/grocery getter (pending some sort of a rack setup, probably a Wald basket eh?) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
