Our Chief Architect, Jason Horman, just had a brand spankin’ new Strida folding bike delivered to the office. It’s pretty sweet!
But the question is…
Will a commuter bicycle simplify Jason’s life? We’ll see.
Jason will give it a try for the next few weeks & report back. If you’ve been on the fence about taking the plunge on purchasing a commuter bike, let us know your questions and hopefully Jason can answer them in the next few weeks.

I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first when Jason was describing the “bike”. But after seeing it, I can see how it can be really practical. Now as far as the way it looks…beauty is certainly in the eyes of the beholder.
nice bike…does it come with suspension for us older commuters?
For those that can’t choose function entirely over form, there’s the oh so stylish Puma commuter bike….the newest version even glows in the dark!

@brando Now that’s what I’m talking about!
What a great idea! I commute on a bike, but it’s a regular sized Trek hybrid, and if my office wasn’t big enough to fit it in (awkward as it may be), I don’t know where I’d keep it. The commuter bike looks like it might even fit under a desk- and Puma’s glow in the dark concept is genius for late workers. A simplifying solution for people who live in less-than-bike-friendly cities.
