>>1030128>How's 1x11 for a roadbike that's going be used commuting?commuting - I'm more concerned with meeting the local regulations for bike lights and having fenders to keep my clothes clean and a rack so I don't always have to carry a shoulder bag or backpack.
>No intention to go faster than 30 km/h at any point.Much of my riding in Amsterdam was governed by the speed of everyone around me, which was fairly slow.
>Also I live in the Netherlands, flat as a pancake. No need to have gears for climbing.I would get a used opafiets bike (because I could buy a used car for what these bikes cost new) or a used english three speed type bike. Opafiets for carrying extra weight, English three speed if you like riding a 30-50 year old relic.
