The Jury and Steamroller have similar geometries. I had a steamroller for a while as a commuter but later ditched it. Steep head tube angles are cool in some circles, but when you put a fender on a front tire with a 74 degree head tube angle, you are asking for major troublesome toe overlap.

It's not steel, but I went with an IRO Jamie Roy for Seattle wet weather commuting and love it. Full fenders, big tires, very nice ride.
