I bought the Raleigh Redux 2 xmas 2019. That's a great bike for commute. Comes standard with 650bx47 tires, 9spd, and hydraulic disc brake. It made quick quick work of the gravel roads around here. I regularly ride 15 to 20 miles on it for fun. For around town, gravel roads, beat up city streets less than 18 mph it was awesome. For my fitness level maintaining speeds above 18mph on the bike was a lot of work.
