Subject: Kona Dew: anything glaring to watch out for?
|
I flipped a couple Altus equipped hybrids last week and put $200 in the bike piggie and have been trying to find me a cheap neighborhood hybrid on Craigslist. No luck. I figure I should just grab a Kona Dew from the shop down the street for $400, dial in the wheels and bearings, plop on some fenders from a selection hanging in the garage and get on with life. I'd not thunk of buying a cheapy Altus equipped bike if I hadn't run across those two hybrids for $25 each last week. Shifts as well as anybody on a beer run or three miles downtown for a concert would ever need. Who wouldda thunk it? Probably made in China--but hey--it's got a cool logo!

Gosh I'm a great conversationalist! ;-) Getting some in in two weeks. Spec looks low end but perfect for a utility bike. I really don't get spending the extra 500 for the Deluxe when all ya get are steal me brakes and a bitch of a time mounting stuff. Can't believe I'm excited about getting a cheap hybrid. He he. Payed for by craigslist. ;-D That's probably why. ;-)

Bah, East Side sold out of the basic model, and I don't need no steenkin' suspension and discs.
