Singular do it much better. Classic looks with modern parts (where they offer benefit).

He really like it! So do I but I have more time to look for another and he needs to get on with his studies and work at the hospital.
That bike is a good commuter!

The Single looks excellent. Especially like the Peregrine with a proper fork crown. Put some 35mm or 37mm slicks on and guards and have all the bike you'll even need. Looks comfy too.
