If you can come up with a simple bike like this, with maybe

If you can only keep it to around $400 I'd have to keep it to 1 though.


The price point is tricky. It falls somewhere between a kmart special
at about $150 and a low-end name brand bike with reasonable quality
parts, like a giant elwood or upland, which starts at about $400.


True, and whilst the Elwood isn't exciting or note worthy it actually
works pretty well for general pootling around, and can be adapted for
short/medium distance commuting pretty easily.

I reckon they would sell like crazy at $200, above $300 it gets a bit
dicey.


I have to agree...
