Convert Fuji road bike to hybrid/commuter - 2009/11/06 17:59 I just inherited a year old Fuji CCR-3 (carbon frame road bike) that I would like to use on my upcoming daily commute to work... essentially I will be biking to our local metro-rail, taking the bike on the train with me, then from the train biking to work.

The catch is that this may involve riding some dirt/gravel trails; a feat to which I am told road bike are not accustomed.

I am pretty much a noob to bike tech but I was wondering if ya'll had any advice as to what simple/cost effective steps I might take to modify this road bike to something more along the lines of a hybrid/commuter?

Thanks!
