Well, this was one of those projects that started as a "lets build a cheap commuter" and turned into a "lets be a total tart, but keep it so I can commute" ... it's also a bit of a showcase for what I do for a living, but you could argue that any bike builder / designer's bike falls into that category.
It's damn' fast, if I could climb, I think it would climb like a lift, and because I designed it more like a road bike than a track bike, it's very stable.
