I'm looking to purchase my first fixed gear, and I was wondering if anyone had some advice on some of the low end models I've been looking at. I'm hoping to get something cheap before determining if I want to really invest in a fixed gear. I'm looking to ride it to work and around town. My work's only a couple of miles from home, but uphill. I've been looking at the Specialized Langster, the Schwinn Cutter, the Schwinn Madison, as well as the bikes from the following link.

I don't need anything fancy, but I don't want to buy something that's going to fall apart, and I'm hoping it won't be super uncomfortable either. Do the parts on the cross lake bikes look good? Do the Schwinn's hold up decently? I've only ridden mountain bikes (years ago), so I'm just getting in to this. Thanks for your help...
