Definitely. Im heading to the LBS today to get one and some new brake pads. I have to watch myself, I have a tendency to want to throw money at "fixer-uppers" that don't need it): The first irrational thought that came into my head when I bought it was "Hmmm, maybe Ill upgrade everything on this $100 bike to Ultegra components and convert it to a drop bar bike"...Doh!!!
