Well yea, I did take a second look, and you're right, the Greenzone seems to be more in line with the first generation Citizen Gotham. Still it's the only bike in this price range I've seen that has braze on's for a water bottle cage on the top tube. Go figure.
The handle-post on the Greenzone while not as sturdy looking as say, the Nova's, would still require that you be awfully strong to be able to bent it. I should know because I had another bike with this very same handle-post, and it was solid enough.
