Hi all, I've been thinking about getting a bicycle that's more cut out for commutes over iffy roads and bad weather than my current skinny-tire 80's road bike. Specifically, the Swobo Baxter:

A sales representative told me that the Baxter is "sitting up with a bit of a forward lean," while I'd like something with a *bit* more aggression (I'm used to the suicide levers on my road bike). Based on the geometry (and the one picture I can find of the 42cm)

Thanks for your advice!
