Raleigh Furley For Commuting

I'm thinking about purchasing the Raleigh Furley as my new commuter as I wanted something single speed with disc brakes as that seems to be pretty much my only option from what I can see. Anybody have any experience with this bike?

i looked at the Furley before getting my All City Nature Boy (sscx canti).

i liked it very much, but just wasn't ready to jump to discs yet. almost wish i had.

but now, for disc sscx, i'd go with: https://www.ridecvln.com/bikes/le-roi-le-veut/

Do you know where I might be able to buy one of those and what the price is?

12's were around $800. look to be out of stock.

i'd email Civilian and see when the 13's are shipping.

Competitivecyclist.com carries the line.

It looks like a nice bike but i think I'd rather go through a LBS than buying online.
