I use mine daily, I even go to the supermarket on it. It's fast. It suits my frame. That fat tubing makes locking up with the wheels in a bit of a PITA tho.
Braking/ resisting at speed, especially downhill can make the back end slide around quite a bit, so have got out of skidding it so much, esp on less than level terrain (ie take your weight off and skid and whoopsie).
