State Bicycle Co. (self.bicycles)

I've recently begun commuting to work by bike (7 miles round trip, mostly flat pavement) and am looking to get something to replace the ancient Panama Jack I'm currently using. I was looking at the State Bicycle Co. city bikes and have been hearing some mixed reviews. I was curious if anyone here had experience with the brand or had any opinions based on the website information. I'm still a newbie, so any and all help is welcomed.

I commuted around town on one of their fixed gear bikes for 5 years without issue. I swapped in new brakepads, and lubed the chain every few weeks in the rainy winter outside Vancouver BC. It was way cheaper to purchase that bike than to do the maintenance required to commute and train on my regular road bike

I had no issues with mine and sold it before a move to a hilly town for around 50% of the purchase price.
