Uh, some things:
ALL Surlys are steel. The 2013 Pacer costs $1400 not $1175, and anyways the Cross Check (which is $1250 this year) always gets my vote for best-all-round deal.
The 2013 Salsa Vaya Travel MSRP is $3950, not $2199.
The Torker Graduate is totally different for 2013 and really a good option, instead of Sturmy-Archer 5sp/Drum brakes it is a disc brake 1×9 and retails for $629. Plus the smallest size comes in a mixte frame! InterUrban is great too.
