But the mtb is more comfortable for commuting. Actually, come to think of it, my benz is the most comfortable commuter I own. heh.

I know what you mean. I ride my Specialized MB to work and leave the old Peugeot road bike for "serious riding" days. The Specialized is a more comfortable commuter and lets me cut through the park, hop curbs, etc... I like the old Peugeot, too, though -- it's got loads of character.
