Upper bike is mine, lower bike is the lady's.



'06(?) Kona Fire Mountain with Surly rigid fork and 29 inch front wheel. Nashbar moustache bar, Nashbar adjustable stem, Planet Bike Cascadia fenders, Topeak rear rack, Ortlieb panniers (not pictured). Studded Nokians currently mounted, rolls on semi-slicks in the summer. I'd like to roll straight up slicks since my riding is 90% pavement, but the city generally fails to clean up the winter gravel before the end of July (it just gets swept onto the shoulder, sidewalk, and any MUP that's close enough to the road). Plus it's fun to go rattle around on the dirt sometimes.

The lady rides my old MTB, given to her because the top tube was a little too short for me and I was looking to upgrade to disc brakes. So she used her REI pro-deal to buy me a new Novara Bonanza (since stolen ) in trade for the old Trek. Not hybridized yet, but the next bike purchase will most likely be trekking bars for her. She loves the shocks, so they'll stay. The rack and panniers from the Kona will go to her when I get an Xtracycle kit sometime this summer.
