This is Mrs Gordy's new commuter - a small Giant Seek Zero with 8 speed Alfine and hydraulic discs. Discounted to £650 by the Edinburgh Cycle coop - I reckon it's a bargain and she's swooning over it.
I've swapped the front wheel for one with a SON dynohub - the non-matching rims and spokes would drive me nuts, but Mrs G never noticed and says I've to leave the rear wheel as it is.
The whole bike is beautifully finished, with gold anodised bits. The narrow rack isn't on purpose, it is just one that's been in the garage for ages. The bike came with 32mm Maxxis Detonator tyres and they've been changed for 25mm Marathon Plus.
