I'm just cursed. I don't really like this bike, it's too small (bought it when I was 14 (!), the geometry sucks, it's heavy, and it probably will need a major overhaul soon.

I just don't know that replacing it is worth... $1000+ that I would probably spend.

Unless of course you're calling me a and then...

I had no idea you've had that bike for so long! Makes sense to want to spend some good money on another bike. When I lived out west I traded my car for a bicycle. That thing rocked. I'd love to have something similar again, but lately bicycles seem a lot more complicated than I previously thought.

I have a good bike for recreational riding. This bike is commuter duty only. It has fenders, a rack, and a bunch of lights. Probably weighs 20 kg.

Sir CP...that you have a commuter-only bike makes sense to me! 20kg? Really??

It was strangely embarrassing in a very polite way.
