This is my commute bike even though it doesn't look "commuter-ish" much. '98 GT Edge built up from frame and fork with assorted components from my parts bin plus ebay.

Works well for me! I was thinking about putting a seatpost rack on so I could ditch my back-pack but you guys gave the OP so much trouble about his seat-post rack . . . guess I'll keep using my back pack. Oh, and it's a carbon seatpost so seat post rack probably not a good idea regardless.

Plus I need to find a better background!
