Andrew - without knowing your attraction to the Devil -- if you're interested in the QB because its a Grant-design, Riv-quality ride, I don't think the Devil would be a suitable replacement by any stretch.
That being said, you could pick up a *waterford*-made Hillborne and set it up with an eccentric bottom bracket and run it as a singlespeed. Then, when the Simple-one comes out (or when a 58cm QB pops up), convert the Hillborne to a geared go-anywhere bike. Also, if you're willing to wait just a bit, you can have any number of custom builders craft you a nice singlespeed in the spirit of the QB. Just a thought or two. Esteban San Diego, Calif.
