Why not? If he can find a workable solution for carrying a single bag, he'll have about the fastest (for flatland at least) commuter bike possible. My commuter would be considered "high zoot" by most due to being a full carbon frame and fork and lightweight wheels but I've managed to make it a great commuter bike for my hilly 31 mile r/t ride.
