The Bruce Gordon's look great, as do the Surly's, but none of these allow for disc brakes. I know there's a lot of debate as to the need for disc brakes, but my ride is super hilly, and with all the rain we get up here, I think they'd be a wise choice. Besides, I can't help it, but I really like the way they look.

The Co-Motion Americano does allow for disc brakes, and is quite a beauty. They're so darned expensive, but maybe I just need to suck it up.

You guys are great. Thank you so much for your help.
