Okay, good to know. I'm definitely looking for light, at least within reason. I need to toss this sucker on my shoulder to get it up to my apartment every day. As for gearing, I figured I'd get the locals to help once I bought something, as they ride the exact same hills (and have probably set gearing for a bunch of people before me for the same hills).

Thanks!
