My primary commuter is a single speed, but if I move farther out or into the hills, I'm likely going to want gears.

IHGs seem very commuter friendly, except for the oft-mentioned caveat about the difficulty of changing flats.

I'm having trouble envisioning the problem and even more trouble understanding why the manufacturers don't address it, since commuters seem like a natural target-audience for IHGs.

Can anyone explain the former, if not the latter? When I get time, I'm going to head to an LBS with an abundance of IHG bikes to see things in person...
