It's amazing how people seem to ignore cyclists; he nearly runs 2 of them over.

Single speed commuter with mudguards & panniers

Can anyone recommend a good single speed frame which I could run with mudguards and a light weight rack. Ideally just the frameset.

I can see a Ridgeback Solo reviewed here but I can't seem to buy one.

I keep looking at touring/audax frames but can't find one I can run as ss.

I'm fed up with getting soaked, I know, I'm soft!!!!

Ribble winter trainer/audax / Genesis Croix de Fer - Advice please!

Having just moved 8 miles out of town, I'm looking for something I can use to run the commute and for a bit of weekend fun/fitness, and that I can maybe think about doing some light touring on. I'm after a decent balance of speed and comfort, and something I can ride year-round.

I had been looking at a Genesis Croix de Fer, as that seems to be a sturdy workhorse that could easily cope with winter commutes and would be a bit of fun for the weekends. My concerns, though, are the weight and the price.
