Saw that Roper locally, and didn't like the gearing for my locality, but LOVED the paint job. Maybe, then will expand the line with better (for my local) gearing options.
Agreed. Odd choice for an urban bike to mate a 46 tooth single chainring to an 11 - 28 cassette. I would think something like a 40 or 42 tooth chainring with a 11 - 32 would make more sense for most urban riders.
