"Another reason why I went back. It's a perfect fit."

"Looking for a better (IMHO) commuter? Check out 80s-90s rigid MTBs."

Some of the "hybrids" from that period are also terrific! I have a 20-year-old Schwinn CrossCut that is great. Even so, I myself wouldn't give up the Sprite that quickly. They are really nice to ride around on. I'd just make a little extra room in the garage for a future addition .
