Bike Setup:
Added a Blackburn rack, Catseye lights, and Selle Royal saddle. The original saddle was fine, butI

Summary:
I use the Coda for commuting to U. of Miami, and for recreation. Excellent bike for commuter/recreation (real world) biking. Very fast, very comfortable. Good looking. Light and fun to ride. Bounces over curbs, races over gravel, and sheens on a decent road! Excellent value. In fact, the guys at Bike and Fitness liked it so much that they started carrying it as a regular item (I had special-ordered it), and they sell as soon as they hit the floor.

Strengths:
The Coda is the perfect commuter/recreation bike. Fast and comfortable. Excellent components for the money, with a light frame, and a great look.

Weaknesses:
It is so fast and eager that it could use one more (higher) gear. Of course, I'm in South Florida, where there are hardly any inclines, much less hills.

Similar Products Used:
Used to ride a mountain bike with slicks as my commuter. Not the same experience at all. Go ahead and get the Coda, and you will see the light.
