Personally I would say try and get a 2nd hand road bike and use that for commuting. I would not feel safe parking a lightspeed up anywhere regularly.
Going single speed is easy on a road bike or mbt. Take off the cogs you don't need space out the cog you want with some old casset spacers and use a chain tenssioner if you don't have enough room in the drop outs to adjust chain tension.
Good luck
