I ride a road bike for commuting everyday and no, it isn't that harsh.
At
least in my opinion. I think the reason you don't see them as often is
because of that misconception.

Of course the stock answer here is to buy a touring bike. That being said,
I
also commute on a road bike(Schwinn Peloton) and it's not harsh at all.
Yeah, touring bike isn't a bad idea. Like I said in my other post, I went
the route I did because it was cheaper entry level. I ended up with
essentially the same thing, but it took longer to get there. Some tinkering
and experimenting. I love my bike, though.
