Best commuting single speed for approx £500

[cheekydollar]

Hi all,

I've decided to get myself a single speed for commuting on the cycle2work scheme. Can anyone suggest a singlespeed for about £500 with brakes on the front and back and freewheel ability? I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes ton singlespeeds so any advice would be really useful.

Cheers

Joe

Specialised Langster is very well liked.

That looks good! Seems to have got good reviews and ticks all the boxes, plus you can get for 400 quid.

Any other favourites?

Edinburgh Bicycle Co-operative Revolution Track '10 is dead popular in my house

My vote would be the Ridgeback solo.
