My friend is rocking one as a single speed commuter.
The wheels seem fine. From a quick glance they looked, machined but painted. The white will get messy and wear where the brake hits it, but eventually it will turn silver. I guess this might be a problem in the wet until the wear, but just ask the guys in the shop. Also it's summer, so it'll prolly wear by the time the rains hit.
The main thing that seemed wrong, was the track bars. If you have drops the position looks fucked. But thats an easy switch. FSA compacts are good and cheap.
