I have a Ride Scoozy Veego Semi Fat. Put 3300 miles on it Had a lot of fun. The brakes are terrible. The shifter is cheap and flimsy. The crankset is pot metal and fell off the bike. The wheels cannot be fully true. I still had a lot of fun. After 3300 miles I bought a Specialized Como. Ride Scoozy has been great with support and repair parts. I would not recommend Ride Scoozy or similar bikes for commute more than a few miles. Bafang conversions (I had one for a while) can be pretty great if your donor bike has good brakes; they are quite powerful and would be good for commuting. Personally I would not choose to commute on a rear hub bike - too hard to change a tire on the road.
