Bikes: Too many but never enough.

I put about 18 miles on the Sundeal bike this week, 2-3 miles daily and a longer 8 mile ride.

Typical of minibikes, very stiff frame, small sized, stiff wheels; out-of-saddle efforts produce instant response in acceleration.

I'm glad that I swapped the OEM saddle rightaway, propably would fit a suspension seatpost for longer rides.

Handling feels pretty stable, hands-free riding took some practice, but still manageable.

Originally I though the gearing might be too tall for city commuting, but turned out ok, just the top gear is tall.

Heel clearance of the frame is a bit tight.. I have size 9.5 shoes.. sometimes strikes the chain/seatstay on the non-drive side.
