Subject says it. What is it to you?

Is it a MTB with slicks? Is it a simple road bike with fenders? So, if you would fill in your answers to these questions maybe we can get a good discussion going Feel free to post URL's to your suggestions.

The only requirement is that it has to be an all-weather bike.

Frame type. Road? MTB? Hybrid? Specific model? New? Used?

Wheel size. 26"? 700C? other?

Tire size/type.

Drivetrain. Single Speed? Fixed? Derailer? Geared hub?

Brakes. Standard caliper or V? Discs? Coaster? Drum?

Storage: Rack+Panniers? Baskets? Trailer? Xtracycle?


Pardon me if I forgot anything!

Part of my motive is to get a nice thoughtful discussion going, but part of it is selfish too I want to build myself a new bicycle for commuting and general city riding this winter.
