Where will you keep it while sleeping? Will you have to carry it up a lot of stairs? Have to climb up and across GWB?
I think I want a drop bar but I went into a store yesterday and for the first time out of the 4 stores Ive been to to do my research, told me its a bad idea to get a road bike because it will not be good for vision purposes getting around the city. So now I am really confused.
