Thanks I've just rode it to the library (to drop off a overdue book) and stopped by Burger King for a breakfast. The bike really is smooth and I've noticed that I'm riding more vehiculary with this bike than the other one. Though I've noticed that I get more tired on flat road than on inclines? I would've thought that it was the other way for me. Maybe I just need to get my bike fitted at the LBS too.

P.S. I'm gonna have to look around for a bike pump for the presta valve (thanks sheldobrown.com for the info!). Is there any pumps that I should avoid? I'll be stopping by the LBS after work to talk to them about how much it would be to get the bike fitted and having a tune-up anyway. I'll also need to get started on learning how to clean & lube my chain too.
