I've been getting the single speed itch, too, especially looking ahead to the winter and the type of riding I usually do. I've never ridden a QB, but I have borrowed a friends Steamroller for a few rides. I really liked it. I'm around 200lbs, and the tubing didn't feel dead to me.
I wish Riv still made single speeds, but I guess they didn't sell quickly enough. You may also want to check out Wabi and the Cinelli Mash Work. The Cinelli is pretty much the anti-Riv: super long top tubes, short stack, reaaaallly short chain stays. A local shop owner has one, and loves it for bashing around town.
