I saw a budget discussion thread on here , where someone recommended a 7 speed retrospec over the Genesis. Not exactly a review, that recommendation, though. Not sure why pick this over like a Dahon C7A Vybe, where you can get some LBS support. 369/399, worth the 30 for year of free service, I think. Although, I only spotted some grey and pink retro's on amazon, but it wasn't like I was really looking hard. I do understand, why some people will buy the new, instead of the used, though, between the fast, the rusty and the stolen (and the costs too close to retail, not to retail).
