I'm kind of new here. My commute is about 11 miles each way on rolling hills (about 1000 feet in climbing each way). I have attached a pic of my rig, let me know what you think! It's a Surly Cross Check 58cm with Ultegra front and rear dérailleurs and 105 STI shifters with a 105 12-25 freewheel. It has Jandd Mini Mountain Panniers, Planet bike fenders, two rear blinkers, FSA cranks and Mavic aksium wheel set with 700cx35 tires. I hope to get a black brooks saddle soon and maybe some new pedals.
