Rolling resistance has way more of an effect than weight. But that said, I would never trade off durability for weight especially for a commuter/bike touring bike. Punctures are a drag any time but especially when you are carrying a load.

Forget aging trees. Canadian forests are ablaze basically wiping out any green reductions in CO2 emmissions from industry or consumers. Besides the loss of property, wildlife and hopefully NOT people, it will take a long time for the Canadian Boreal forest to actually be an active carbon sink again.

They get them from self pleasuring as they can’t get a date in spite of the big truck they have.

I also have the chromoly Rove but in Silver. Love this bike. It is a real workhorse. I changed out the handlebars for Surly TruckStops which gives a slightly more upright riding position. Perfect for riding in town and among traffic. I run WTB Horizon's or Ventures when it is wet.
