True, but I
don't want to... I have other options that work better for me. For me personally, a heavy city bike isn't worth the hassle and effort and time. I'd rather have a faster, easier time getting to work. For someone else with different priorities it might be different... I don't have to go to work in nice clothes every day for example, nor do I ever need to carry more than fits in my backpack.
To each their own
