I am looking for a fast all-rounder STEEL frameset for commuting and city riding. I would like something quick and responsive but not too race oriented. I need something stable enough for occasionally carrying a light load but zippy enough to zoom around corners and in and out of traffic. Two framesets I have been checking out are the Surly Pacer and Soma Smoothie ES. I want to keep the price below $650.00 for the frame and fork. One last note ; If you are going to suggest the surly cross-check and LHT, and Soma double cross, or salso casseroll, I have already marked these OFF the list because of fit and style.
