Hi folks. Here's my quick story:

Got a road bike in Tucson for commuting to the U of A. I just fell in love with road bikes due to my old 70's Peugeot I picked up off craigslist. I just graduated and returned home to the islands. Happy Graduation to myself: I bought a brand new 2008 fuji roubaix. Man, what a nice bike.

But now I'm looking at commuting again, and not just training. So I'm looking to get a commuter bike, which browsing through this forum, makes me real excited. Here's the big question: how much would it cost to convert a fixie into a 10 speed? Would it be worth it to learn the ins and outs of all the parts? Or should I really just get a bike with gears and such already? I'm looking to commute, learn about the bike, and tinker with it to my hearts desire...
