I'll check out REI, I kinda don't like that the handlebars aren't flat. But I'll see if I can test drive it and see how I feel.
I imagine the Raleigh Misceo they were showing me was probably the bottom of the totem pole model.
So, if it came down to the Raleigh Misceo and the Felt Brougham (and I realize they are two very different bikes), what would you folks go for?
