Nothing wrong with coasting if that's you thing. As some folks are aware, I even occassionally have a predilection for shifting. But Schiek was saying that the Steamroller has a higher BB and Ira referred to it as a track frame, neither is true. That's all I'm saying.
If you want it, get it, it's not a bad price. I just don't think there's anything special about a Steamroller frame that you couldn't get with a vintage roadie with decent fender & tire clearance plus all the eylets you need for mounting them and racks and whatnot.
