Btc?

Any thoughts on retrofitting a new Bob Jackson with bicycle torque couplings?
I travel and I like the idea, a fixie seems like the perfect candidate - no messy cables or junk hanging
Has anyone done this?
Would a Bianchi Pista or something else perhaps a bit more common, be a better candidate?
My Bob Jackson is a beaut, with extra chrome, I cringe thinking about cutting the frame in half, even though the testimonials are heartily enthusiastic, I just don't see many fixed going this route. Any thoughts?
Its kinda pricey after you add in the travel case and the retrofitting:

Musing with the idea. Appreaciate any feedback.
