I have been commuted on old mountain bikes last year and wanted something faster when I finally broke down and bought a new bike for the commute.

I thought the combo of 700c wheels on with no suspension fork would be a nice middle ground allowing a nicer roll over bumps and potholes, but cutting away the weight of a suspension fork. I never really cared for the suspension fork on pavement. Not that it was a big deal, but it didn't seem to really have much of an effect on softening harsh pavement over my straight fork bikes.

I also still like the feel of a mountain bike frame especially for commuting.

It really does seem the Dew is the perfect bike for me. I was just wondering if there was another one out there somewhere that was similar that I should being taking a look at.
