Help me decide
Im looking to pick up my first singlespeed complete bike and have narrowed it down to the following:
2010 Jamis Sputnik
https://www.jamisbikes.com/usa/thebik...0_sputnik.html
AllCity Nature Boy
https://allcitycycles.com/bikes/nature_boy1/
What do you think would be a better choice component wise? I know the nature boy is more of a cyclocross setup but I am planning on commuting year round in central PA. Any input would be appreciated.
Also in terms of fit, should I have at least 1 inch from the top tube to crotch when standing over the bike?

Sputnik would be my choice for sure.
Component wise, Sputnik has a slight better set of wheels, cranksets are the same, hard to compare the brakes because they are not of the same "genre".
Sputnik has a very very nice frameset, it is the basically reason why I'd pick Sputnik.
