This is kind of now the girlfriend's bike (it was always a little small for me). It has worked as my nice-weather commuter, but sadly there is not enough room for fenders, and now I've moved over to riding the c-dale to work (just to pretend that my -5 mile commute is a tour, hah).
This bike has also required some replacement of crappy stock parts... Replaced Sora crank that was ready to fall off, replaced/upgraded the plastic Sora shifters to 105s, need to replace crappy rusted sora brakes (it is only the coil spring that is crap apparently...), and added extra reflectors (6) for safer night riding in the city.
