...also, what makes a commuter bike to the marketing department is
  • OEM accessories (lights, fenders racks)
  • ostensibly low-maintenance and weather-resistant components (IGH, belt drive, disk brakes)
  • NYC-themed name and ad copy, bonus points if they mention carrying it up the stairs. Trek is pretty clever with this stuff, this year they have a bike called Chelsea which is a neighborhood in both NYC and London, and in the past they've had a Soho.
