Default The Husky has gone - what should I buy next?

Not sure what I fancy really...mainly my 12 mile each way commute, which may go up to 20 miles each way.

Would consider just about anything including another SM.

So whatt then?

Oh £3k max...

Possibly, but won't need rebuilding all the time

But why you changing it if you think the new one won't match up to the husky ?

I get bored easy...apart from a new chain, sprockets and a few bulbs it was a great commuter, all year round too!
