Got a Dew Deluxe a year ago for commuting 10 miles each way every day along canal path and road. Flat bars, project 2 fork, OK wheels. Not the lightest frame in the world, but quick enough to do the 10 miles in half an hour (with the wind behind me). Rack, mudguards etc all accommodated easily. Pedals, skewers and grips all shite, but drivechain and brakes not bad for the price. Converted to ss at the start of winter and only just replaced with a steel ss-specific frame.
I need to replace a couple of things to have it ready for the weather getting better when i’ll use gears again.
