hey all...
been an avid rider for a while..have owned a series of bikes from a racing moser to antique single-gear clunkers.
currently trying to figure out what i should get for a daily commuter/performance bike...something that will be fun to ride, can take fenders, but can be left outside during the day without making me paranoid.
i'm thinking that the giant fcr3 might fit the bill...would be glad to hear any comments. seems like a solid and fast frame...i'd probably swap the stem for something lower and have a better seat and clips left over from my old commuter bike (bottom bracket seized on it and couldn't be extracted from the frame).
cheers all...
