+1. Amazing how the Pacific/Dorel powers-that-be kept the Cutter in the "Schwinn Select" series, instead of the "Straight to Tarmart" Series.

Yeah I didn't think $300.00 was cheap. Maybe some people can throw a lot of money On a bicycle. I'm not in that category, but I'm sure glad you are. ;-)>

Sheldon Brown can be your friend
If you convert from 27 to 700, you would be able to run some fatter rubber.

I bought this cutter two weeks ago, and so far the pedals broke,the bottom bracket gets loose after each ride. I've been working on it to make it better, but I think the LBS ripped me off. I didn't buy it to race, just to ride around town on errands and use as a dependable ride.
