I have a 1970 Raleigh Competition that I period-Campy'd up and it's a pleasure to ride, but my daily commuting bike is a Trek FX1-disc and it's fine. I don't mind riding it, I don't worry about it getting hurt or stolen, it's tough and doesn't mind abuse. It's got racks for carrying stuff to work or the post office. The Raleigh is in the shop right now getting some updates, but I probably won't ride it much when I get it back.
