Yesterday I put my 2008 Kona Ute up for sale on Craigslist for cheap. Last night, I fixed a flat I'd left long ago (November, last time I rode it) and took the bike for a spin to be sure everything was working properly so people could come take a look today. Well...now I'm having second thoughts! I'd forgotten what a nice, smooth ride it is. I used to ride the Ute every time it rained because of the disk brake, upright position, and visibility on the road. When I was done with my ride, I picked it up and carried it into my front porch. (Say what you will about the aluminum frame, but you can't keep a Big Dummy or Mundo in the city without a locking garage or shed, 'cause those aren't going upstairs.) I decided to ride it to work today and see if I had a change of heart. Again, I enjoyed my ride a lot.

I'm really torn. If it weren't for that darned single kickstand and resulting balance issue, I wouldn't even dream of selling it.
