The SE Draft is well-rebranded with the name 'Workhorse'. You can take some pride in that. Many will tell you it sucks and it does indeed if you are holding it up to a lightweight track bike for comparison, but the Draft/Workhorse is every bit a bike as any other. It's main failing is weight; otherwise it is decently engineered and a lot of practical bike for its price. You can put a lot of miles on it and get strong.

When and if you decide to go for more 'performance' in a bike, the next step is about $400 - $600 for entry level SS/fixed track or road frame.

After that, the sky is the limit although in my opinion spending more than about $800 -$1,000 on a SS/fixed is for people who either:

1. want to do some real track racing.

2. have more money than sense.

3. have parents who didn't love them and make up for it by lording brand status over their peers.
