Ha, yeah couple of bosses wouldn't look out of place...and tbh, wouldn't go amiss as it suits what i actually need from a fixed gear. I like things a little relaxed for the everyday/all day stuff. I'm sure it could still have it on the planks...with the right rider! But it'll be perfect for most of my riding.
I didn't really consider it from that point of view, but yeah it is a bit puzzling. I don't really know much about "pursuit" geo's, I guess it'll be as individual as the riders they're made for. Though does seem relaxed compered to most others. Perhaps it required a bit of the ol' gaston-style-fore-action on the saddle to get over the BB, but you'd expect things a bit tighter on the seat tube. Not sure on actual angles, the front looks a bit more on point.
I think thrust caught Chas on a "grumpy" day when enquiring, but (as always) would be interesting to find out a little more history.
