@Spotter she was fine, conversation went a little like this
"how much was that frame?"
"£150"
"oh ok I just bought a new pair of shoes and a dress"
Looks like there will need to be a new bike shed now as 3 bikes in the living room is apparently "taking the piss"
no guards or rack mounts, I was searching for something sensible but saw this and got excited, it's such a short distance I reckon I'll start riding with a bag again and use guards that don't need eyelets.
It'll be 7 speed sti's with a travel agent on the Vbrakes, I think that will be the best option for the time being, I'm hoping that 39x13-28 will be ample.
The road in isn't rough but it's steep and slippery.
New commute is all just a petty excuse to build up a new bike, sensible choices seem to have gone to the wayside somewhat.
