well once i've got my tube nightmare out of the way (see other thread on tube explosions) she'll be sweet. I've read a lot of people think they are rather heavy, however this is my first ss/fixed and coming from a full size folder it feels like lifting air.
I find it great fun to ride, a lot happier now I have spd pedals on and it just feels sturdy, I dont know an awful lot about wheels, rims and wheel quality to be honest as I learn more that might be where i would upgrade in future, I just know that its fun and I like it. Saddle is comfy as, as well even for a girl.
I found the bar level a bit low for me, as i'm used to a more upright riding position so I flipped the stem on it and now its perfect.
