I got a new commuter last Thursday. It's a 1996-97 Schwinn Moab. Good stuff. One of the Alivio shifters was crapped out so I replaced it with my trusty Sunrace Friction shifters. I also switched over to some cheap 26" all terrain tires. Aside from that, I just cleaned and lubed and replaced cables as necessary. It has been wasting away in a co-workers basement for years.

I'm used to road gearing so I was a little bouncy on the ride in this morning but I still managed a 16 MPH average speed over 3.6 miles. Not too bad for a hybrid.
