Hello everyone,
After being informed by a forum member of a great deal, I decided and went ahead with a commuter bike upgrade:
This is my old European commuter; simple, rugged with no frills
...and here's my new aluminum frame commuter with all the bells and whistles. I'm still trying to find the best adjustment for the ergo bars, and the suspension seat-post has got to go, but everything else is far better than my previous ride.
