Bombproof, cheap and not too ugly.
i've seen you riding around south of market before. bike looks pretty good for almost stock. i'm thinking about getting one... do you ride it hard around san francisco? how's it holding up?
I used it for commuting and just getting around during the day. Stoplight sprints here and there but no significant mileage other than that. It held up fine -- I sold it about a year ago.
