My new commuter.

After a night of deliberating, I couldn't imagine riding to work on my stumpjumper full suspension bike so I picked up a scott sportster p4 today. I got it for the same price I sold my specialized langster for so aside from upgrading the tires, I evened out.




Chopped the bars down by 4" in width, the shifters barely made it without touching each other. Replaced the semi-knobby 700x37 continential double fighter's with 700x32 panaracer t-serv slicks. And popped on some SPD's.

A tiny 50mm of lockable suspension to take the edge off my broken hand for the next 2 months while it heals and I can always pop the knobbies back on for the trail if I need to.
