Alright--

So I think I've narrowed this down to 3:

-- surly -- Flat-bar crosscheck
-- all-city -- pony express
-- handsome -- devil (city 8)


All three of these bikes have the features I'm looking for, and should be able to be purchased in my area when I move. Both Surly and All-City are QBP brands, so I can order them through a lot of bike shops, and handsome offers direct retail.

I'm moving to a really dry place, so I figured that the advantages of disc brakes in some conditions aren't going to outweigh the advantage of knowing how to work with cantis.
