In the case of this Mongoose Cachet, I can't wait for the chance to inspect one. IMHO although it appears to not share any components with the Mongoose Maurice, I suspect it'll still be a perfectly servicable and reliable year round city bike for me. All for a price below what I was going to pay for an aluminum frame alone.

Taken from the UK Mongoose site:

"Overview: There's a reason fixed gear bikes have been popping up all over the place; they rule! And it's about time you ditched that rattletrap mess for a bike that finally fits your lifestyle. Chose from the Hi-Ten with it's bare bones, old school coaster brake, insta-skid style or the CroMo with its double butted 4130 CroMo frame, color matched parts spec and flip-flop rear hub. Either way you go, you'll let the people know how you roll."
