Wait, do we mean $1200 total bike spending, or just $1200 on that bike? If the former, then I fear I may be the guy you are out there smashing.

For me, I just love the feeling I get when I carry more grocery weight on my old Stumpy pulling a converted kiddie trailer. Now that is a real smashing. By the way, children, I bring home 100 pounds of groceries all the time (three growing boys in the house). Plus about 30 pounds of bike. Plus about 20 pounds of trailer. Plus about 240 pounds of high grade engine. That comes out to almost 400 pounds. Smash that.
