Cube is Too much
Genesis IOID for me. Alfine, mtb riding position, discs and fat sticky tyres for daily gladiatorial combat around Edinburghs potholed streets
MMMM not sure i think if i was after a commuter Iw ould want more MTB hybrid that Road type hybrid.
I would also want it to be able to take proper mudguards and racks.
none of the three tick all the boxes.
What do you want it for - distance /taskes etc?
Junkyard..
Orangina has mudguards and rack on her Genesis.......
Used day to day for combat in Edinburgh...
Kona takes proper mudguards and rack(it comes with them) on one says it can take both. It'll be used for a year round commuter.
build a lht.
£300 for a frame.
Year round - hub gears so alfine pompetamine. Or as others have said, Genesis Day One Alfine.
Sure you need gears? I have a Kona Paddy Waggon, that is fitted out with rack and SKS mudguards. Perfect!
depending on what distance and how hilly... you could go ss ?? get a much bigger choice and cheaper
I do year round on a fixed, mine is only a short (4 mile) ride but not flat and I could easily double that on the bike I currently use - and I'm no hardcore biking god.
pompetamine is a good choice though
2 day one alfines on ebay now...
