no...I'm going for a Broadway Bikes master model, which is set up kinda like an old-style 3-speed. The handlebars are further upright than a usual bike and swept back ("mustache handlebars"), which means that I don't have to put weight on my wrists. Also, more importantly, I can sit up relatively straight so the neck and shoulders don't get worse, which is the ultimate cause of the wrist stuff anyway.
Unfortunately, apparently the person in (Michigan?) who makes the frames for them apparently stopped making the large frames...so I'm considering options, including telling them to use a different frame. (The only real downside is that it's a brand-name frame, which means it _looks_ flashier, which kinda sucks in a stealing-happy city.)
