Alot depends on what you mean by "good". I commute on a '77 Schwinn Le Tour II and it makes an awesome commuter. Yeah, it's heavy (30+ lbs.) but it can take the abuse of railroad tracks and potholes without complaining. Probably no heavier than that era of MTB and I like the more aero position (80% of my homeward commute home is into the prvailing wind so 10 - 25 mph headwinds are common). Oh, and it was pulled out of a dumpster so total cost was under $50 and a few hours work for a solid commuter.
