Could we lobby for a sticky?
I'll post some pics after the weekend when I can get some pics.
This is my newest bike and newest commuter. Unlike my '89 Alpine Monitor Pass which is set up with racks front and rear for hauling a lot of gear. I configured the Sirrus as a light/sport commuter. So far I really like the rapid fire shifting. The one liability to the shifting is unlike the Alpine there is no friction shifting for use when the derailer gets a skidge out of adjustment. I also like the fact that it's actually geared for the road the Alpine is geared a little low.
