For those who think the $1900 Breezer Finesse is a bit much for a commuter bike, here is GT Bicycle’s take on the utility bike: The GT Transeo Series.
It’s fairly bare bones, but this bike starts at $395. Unlike some fancier commuter bikes introduced at Interbike 2007, you don’t have to worry about this bike getting stolen or scratched up. It has wide open clearance for whatever kind of tire you want to install, as well as mounting points and room for fenders, racks, and whatever other accessories you want to add.
