I never seen one neither until I pick up my 85 Tempo a few years ago. At least I know what it called now.:)

Specialized Globe Daily 02
 

Here is my commuter, a Globe Daily 02, with its new Brooks Flyer. Comfy!

Discuss.

Looks too small for you?

Picked this up about a month ago still haven't ridden it.... Hopefully soon.

why would you buy a bike and not even ride it? That's a sign you have a problem. Go ahead and stand up, "Hi, my name is kflagg, and I'm a bike addict..."

I'll get around to it don't rush me lol. Between buying a home and moving along with working crazy hours lately I haven't had the time.

I immediately thought the same thing. Holy stem spacers batman!!!

Not stem spacers, but a stem extender. Yeah, I think it looks odd, like the frame is too small. It's a Large, 57cm. They made an XL at 61 which would have *looked* like a better fit, as I found out after buying it. But the fit is pretty good. I just had to get the bars up high enough. They could still come back a little more, and this would be problem with the longer top tube on the XL size. so is there any disadvantage to running a smaller frame with the seat post up and stem extender to get the bars up? This is my upright bike, after all. The bars on my Lemond are a good bit lower the than saddle.

Hey, if it works well for you that's all that matters. Pedal On!

Breezer Uptown 8 with modifications:

1. Trekking bar. I wanted more hand positions than the single position I had on the stock swept bar. I'm finding the side grips to be the most comfortable cruising position. Far-side grips work as I had hoped against headwinds. The closest colors the LBS had to "matching" the rest of the bike were black and white - I found that too boring.

2. MKS Lambda platform pedals. Loving the huge surface area and grip. The battleaxe shape looks metal as hell too.

My gf lets me actually part it in our apartment, her idea not mine.

I know that BMX is not build for commuting and there's more suitable bikes for that but well I've done it. I setup my bmx bike (20" wheels size) to a higher seatpost and longer seat, put a basket, side mirror, mudguard, umbrella holder, front and back lights, etc... like this...

I'm 5" 10" tall and I'm comfortable with my bike.

I was run off the road a couple weeks ago on my Time Machine. The other guys insurance cut a check so I got two of these instead of another Time Machine. Now the next time I get run off the road I will have another bike ready to roll!

Set the first one up today!

Umbrella holder...what will they think of next?!

Cool btw...

You're in Chile? It's great to have you here. Please put your location in your profile. It adds relevance to your posts.

Profile updated. Thanks, regards.

I like that saddle pattern!

If you were on a time machine, why didn't you just go back in time before the accident to avoid it? :p The BMC looks fabulous BTW.

I built this for myself a week ago, and today was the first day I commuted on it. It's quick!

My latest commuter. Not fast, but fun and provides protection from the weather and loads of luggage space.

I like the looks of that. You won't be sitting completely upright on it.

*****in! The future has arrived!

I am already contemplating swapping it out for a slightly higher stem. I do not want to be straight up but I also do not want to feel like I am riding with drops either.

[MENTION=412567]tolesy[/MENTION], my recommendation is to try it as it is for a while. Then before changing the height of your bars, try bars that are swept back, such as North Road bars.

A stem will be far easier to change if it's not too tall. When I changed to swept back bars (FSA Metropolis) I had to replace every cable on the bike because the cables were too short to reach the controls in their new positions. Plus flat-bar style controls require longer cables on swept-back bars to keep from kinking as they curve around to the top/down tubes.
