^^^ Agree in full...great post, right on the money. I love weird, creative, Frankensteins that pay no attention at all to convention and just reflect the owner's individual tastes and needs.

I'll always love road bikes first...but there is a sameness to them. Commuters and gravel grinders are just more fun because everyone's approach is just a little bit different. They may not be hot...but they're fun. My goofy commuter is definitely not hot, but it reflects my personality more than the beautiful, classic roadies.

REALLY dig that Dahon.
