cyclocross for ~$800?
yes I want the both world of commuting + occasionally on the road!
but I am new & broke and budget is around $800 and on top of this I live in a city that rains half a year so disc brake would be nice but then the cost...
anyways I appreciate all your recommendations
Thank you

How about something like one of these? Don't know how mounting fenders/racks on them would work, but they're all ~$800 or less.
