I'm wanting a coaster-brake errand bike that I can fit with fenders and a basket. The usual "cruiser" style bikes (including the supposedly heavy-duty Worksmans) seem to have a 1" seat post that bends when I sit on it. The only durable coaster brake bike I've seen so far is the Electra Townie. Anybody have other suggestions? Thanks!

you should not be mending any seat post

Agreed! That's why I sold my Dyna cruiser bike. I bought a new Townie 1-speed today!

Jamis Taxi. Built for rental fleets and can take a hellava beating.
