So, I'd like to start by saying thanks again to those who provided assistance with my new to me Shogun Prairie Breaker (I think I'm going to call all MTBs Prairie Breakers from now on
)
I've been working on getting to the point that I can do an 11 mile commute, and can now do it readily; but I'm not sold on the Shogun being a great commuter. I love riding it in the evenings along the river, but it isn't exceptionally responsive, and I can't seem to get into a long term stretched out comfortable position that I'd like to be in. There is a Fuji Sagres near by that looks just like the red one in this thread:

Its been on the market for a bit, I'm certain I could get it for $25.00. I'd put tires and tubes on it and go through and lube everything, probably be on the road for $150 which I think is reasonable.
I'm thinking this would be a better commuter, at least for what I'm looking for, and that would let me take the racks off the Shogun and use it to play with on the weekends.
Any opinions?
Thank you
