My new bike
I got a bike! After going to 6 SF bike shops and looking at and riding many bikes all day Saturday and Sunday, I finally picked one that I liked. I highly recommend Big Swingin' Cycles to anyone in the market for a bike (http://www.bigswingincycles.com). These guys are the most friendly, knowledgeable folks I dealt with on my search and ultimately who I purchased from! I would also really like to thank Chris and Jamison for all their help and dealing with me while deciding what I wanted.
So here's a (factory) pic of my new ride - haven't named her yet:
