I am also with Ed, though I prefer the B model. Yes, his puts mine to shame but it is mine and has been since new.

So far I’ve experienced only my 78 650. I really like it and am updating it quite a bit even if I’m using model T tires for now.

That's a ZRX, same weight.
I'm partial to a 650, having had one for over 30 years.

Out of your list, a 750E. I like my N1 but it's not as readily modifiable - I like tinkering.

Out of any, though, a wire-spoke 1000 would be quite nice.
