I think if I needed something for short
urban rides I'd just get a regular $400 MTB and put slicks on it, and
spend way less than $2000.....
the seat would feel far better then a wedgie does. after three months on my bent
I could not handle my racing bike anymore. from the reviews of the lower models
they have been pretty good.
