Ok soo probably a re-post of immense magnitude but did these actually get made and can you buy them in the shops or on the cycle to work scheme?

Just looks like so much fun to hack around on! anyone have any experience of these machines?

Why bother...just get one from the company who pioneered wire downtube, mid-suspension frames...Slingshot cycles.
Their original steel ones were so nice...not so keen on their aluminium ones though.
