Cheap singlespeed commuter

I love my Bianchi fixed gear, but it's not working out as a commuter bike. I need a bike to which I can add fenders and a rear rack.

I don't have much money to spend on a new bike, but I can afford the Van Dessel Straight Up. Does anyone have any dope on that bike or any other inexpensive singlespeed I should look at with fender and rack eyelets? The Straight Up moustache bars look goofy. Do you get used to 'em over time?

Another thing, I prefer road geometry and 700c wheels.

Thanks.
