Quote from evblazer on Oct 27th, 2010, 9:39am:Full suspension good for sometimes not being able to choose the best route through the streets due to heavy traffic. I don't know how much pogoing you might get on that rear suspension when you crank it. Shouldn't be too much and on a commuter might not matter anyways especially if you are thinking about some gebe or something.
Lowish bottom bracket, seat and tilting stem for easy stopping and standing.
Hard to tell what tire size or if it'll fit fenders but don't know if you'd need either.
Might be tricky putting storage on it depending on how much you need to bring. Could be better under or attached to seat to get maximum benefit from the rear suspension.
Triple for more gear range for when the wind gets tough or on hills.
It looks like it would be good. I personally don't like the double chaintube setup instead of an over/under idler but it may make no difference and having the full chaintubes there on a commuter can be really nice so you don't mess yourself or your clothes up on the chain.
Yeah got a pm have to get permission.
When I owned the bike, I didn't experience any pogoing. May be a factor of weight - I only weigh 140 pounds. The rear spring shock is adjustable, so if pogoing was experienced by a heavier rider, it could possibly be adjusted out.
The bike has very effective brakes - Dual V brakes.
If I recall correctly, it has an 11-34 cassette paired with its triple crankset for good hill climbing capability.
The rack that fits this bike may be found at:

I loved the chain tubes, because they were quiet and didn't add any perceptible drag on the chain.
The bike should be like new, mechanically, because it would be doing good to have over 300 total miles on it.
