Bikes: A bunch of old bikes and a few new ones

Velo orange pass hunter if you want room for 32c tires. Soma makes a number of different bikes that would work; the smoothie es takes standard or long reach brakes. The main triangle is tange prestige which is nice stuff. The surly pacer is 4130 steel (like the pass hunter) and takes long reach brakes. A lot depends on your budget. The Gunnar sport is light weight and you can use a carbon fork. There are other choices out there but I'd take a long hard look at the Soma smoothie es if you are looking for a road bike that can take 28c tires and fenders. If you want 32c tires and fenders, the velo orange pass hunter (with canti studs) is a good choice.
