Looks the business, Corsaire. Very red!
I'm in the market soon to replace my old commuter, and the Volpe is high on the list of potential rides. How long is your commute? How do you find the stock gearing and component set, particlarly wheelset? Does the flash flag seem to help a lot? I always run a blinky on the rear, day and night, and find it encourages drivers to give me a lot more space on the road - I imagine the flag helps to achieve the same.
