Azo, you have to have a tough skin on this forum or you won't enjoy the banter. The guy got on my nerves, I let him know. He took everything far too seriously and then started the insults on me. Life goes on.
I would suggest maybe checking out a few other options before purchasing and OSH for your first SS.
You mention training, I'd probably try and find a bike that will stay in one piece after being pushed a bit harder than a nodder likes to push. The owner of OSH himself says that the bikes don't deal well with "abuse" which, by all accounts seems to be riding on Londons super smooth roads!
While you're on here do some searching and you would probably find something better for a little bit extra money. If you've read the whole thread then you'll see eventually you will be spending a lot of money upgrading all your parts soon enough.
Research now, save later
