If you want cyclo cross without the drop bars, check out the Cannondale Bad Boy I posted about earlier in the thread. It's been great, 700c 28c tires are a good blend for speed / durability. Discs. The 50mm travel fork with lockout has also been great for light offloading and curb bashing (and is unique across all Cyclocross/urban bike manufacturers I believe).
Only downside - as an urban bike the position is more upright than I'd like. I got an offset seatpost to help. Would have added a longer stem too but it has the cool integrated headlight....
