the homie’s house burned down. he needs a new off the shelf bike to just get rolling for commuting. drop bar “light tourer” is what I’d call the want/need. what bikes are we looking at in 2026?
Breezer Doppler clearance pricing can get them on a full commuting setup with dyno lights and fenders for under $700. Doppler – Breezer Bikes

That’s devastating.
Primos Dame is what I’ve been recommending to people. Breezer or Marin are great choices too.

I saw a Primos on the street yesterday and that is one odd looking bike frame atmo.
Huge fat steel downtube, huge fat head tube, huge fat unicrown fork. Just looks hugely fat in all the wrong places to me. Probably a fine bike, probably doesn’t plane though lol.

You want the back rack that fits on the front to go with it? @wickedwagon
Does it have 9” of steerer? If so I’m in
“a fistful of post”?
more like “9 inches of steerer”
