This is my daily driver. I bought this because I wanted something light and easy. It's about 10kg so easy to carry in stairs.

My daily commute is 15 mn in the morning, 25 in the evening (going uphill).

Is that a fixie, "just" a single speed, or can it be set up either way? Regardless, my hat's off to you - I don't think my knees could take a single speed all the time.

It can be set up either way, by flipping the back wheel.

I use it as a single speed, I’m not comfortable with going down hill from home on a fixie.

It's very comfortable on flat ground, because it's very light. When it gets too steep, at least it's easy to push or carry.

I bet riding that bike is the best part of your day

My Tern NBD S5i.

Used to have an HSD S8i, but I wasn't fully utilizing its cargo capabilities and realized I don't carry that much anyway. I also just like the way NBD looked over the HSD so I switched over (and glad I did!)

Thinking of wrapping my bike to a different color because why not

I have a Brooklyn Franklin 8 for my leisurely trips around town or to the gym. I also have a Xtracycle RFA for when I'm in a hurry or going shopping, or taking my mother somewhere.
