Bikes: Surly Crosscheck Single Speed, Novara 9 speed commuter/runabout

Check out Swobo bikes http://www.swobo.com/ I just bought a Baxter. It's 4 or 5 lbs heavier than my K2 cyclocross bike... not so much heavier than my Surly Crosscheck. So it takes me a little longer to pedal it any given distance. But the bike is SO styling that I don't care. The Alfine hub is very smooth and I'm loving the disc brakes.
