I am allways on the lookout for companies that design commuter specific bikes. This bike has to be one of the coolest ones out their. If you are shoping for a good bike this would be my choice. Check It out.

hey intense,
as im trying to start up a commuter bikes shop, i'm also always on the lookout for commuter rides.
that burley ride is also showcased in the buyers guide of bicycling magazine (mom got me a subscription, i apologize). :)
check out vandessel bikes for more commuters (cheaper, but seemingly commuter functional). a lot of companies are coming out with the burly frame, with straight bars and rack and fender braze ons, skinny treaded tires, etc. etc. i dont own one of those, but im a fan of those types of rides. id like to see those rides set up as single speed, but that's just me. it's good to see manufacturers supplying the commuters.

That burley looks cool, but I have questions about the durability/serviceablity of the Nexus system. I ride about 70 miles a week times 40 something weeks a year. I need stuff that can be serviced well, not just replaced.
