Hey I got one of these as a gift too ('09 Dawes MTA, pretty much the same bike). Someone should start a "What do we do with our Draft Lites/MTAs we got as gifts besides sell them?" thread. It's been a great city beater for about a year. I've put about 50 bucks into it (saddle, powergrips, better cog/lockring) so far so i don't feel like i'm polishing a turd, but i can see the issue with the cranks. They are pretty fugly.
