My little "draggin' fly", because she really did drag at first due to a mechanical issue, is rapidly growing into the name I have given her, "Dragonfly". She is equally happy on the smooth paved trail as she is on gravel and mountain bike trails, though her rider definitely prefers the smooth roads. She's made of tough steel, uses a belt rather than a chain so she doesn't mind a bit of dirt, has disc brakes so my arthritic hands can stop her more easily, and uses the Rohloff gear system, which makes climbing hills easier, though slower - again, that could be the rider, not the bike. She's ready to take me anywhere I have the stamina and desire to go!
