I won a Priority Classic in a contest a few years ago and rode it for a year. It was intended for this role. I liked the idea. It was noticeably lightweight, mainly due to not-overbuilt aluminum frame and cockpit, and lack of extra things that would make it heavy. As you see it, five hundred smackers.
