Started commuting last month, had done it before a few years ago. Loving it, even with the 100+ degree temps we've been having. This is what I have to select from every morning.

My Steyr Clubman, the one I bought to match my Steyr pistols. Set up simply as a single speed with coaster brake. This one may inherit the IGH you'll see in a bit.



My Redline 925. Still a single speed but soon to become a 3 or 5 speed. The butterfly bar works nicely, but I think it could use a longer stem. I never use the close hand position and sometimes it feels a bit cramped. Otherwise, I really like how this bike rides, nice and solid.



This is a fun one. Raleigh Technium frame with a carbon fork. I have converted it to an 8 speed IGH, but here's the kicker, only gears 1-4 work. I risked buying the wheel cheap knowing this might not be an adjustment issue. It might be the shifter, but I'm not that worried about it. 4 gears seem to be enough after gearing up to a 52/16. This is my "it's going to be windy today" bike. My only complaint with this bike is that it's a very small frame. WIll probably replace it in the near future.
