umatic, the capo isn't a proper track bike, it's basically designed for the road instead of the velodomes, so it won't be as zippy as a track bike.
bike like the Bianchi Pista, Fuji Track, etc. are pure track bike, but not as comfortable to use on the road as the Capo.
I'm not entirely sure if it really worth it thought seeing you're loving the bike, I says probably is, but methinks you should've done a bit more research on it before getting it seeing how much you've spend on upgrade alone (especially with the expensive compound).
you could've save like, £300-500 alone if you decided to built the bike from frame, than buying a complete OTP, and almost replacing every single compound quite quickly.
