It's the Raleigh Cadent i8 ~ $740

Though, I do like the Avanti and the Public D-8!

PS.

Get the 2012 model, for some reason the 2013 model doesn't have the carbon fork!

Avoid aluminum alloy forks at higher price points., like the Specialized and the Jamis.

Why buy a hi-tensile steel Corduroy bike with a IGH? That's a hi-end, lo-end mix!

The BMC is over priced! Though it looks nice...

Rather than the Specialized, I'd rather have Schwinn's JD City suspension that comes with Schwinn's City IG8 at just $890

The Vanmoof looks weird to me. Though that's not to say that others won't like it!
