I hear Surly Steamrollers are really solid. I'm going to be buying one within the next couple of weeks and have done a fair bit of research and they seem to tick all the boxes for me.
brother rides one. they are bombproof, heavy, versatile. Very nice looking dropouts and fork crown, so if built right it can be a pretty looking ride. Not a tight frame, geometrically, though.
