I have one and I like it; and yes, it's light and it's attractive. The frame and fork are solid, and the wheels entirely serviceable. The seat and pedals are throw-aways, but something has to be on a $400 bike. I've replaced the seat, pedals, seat post, bars (which were fine, though cheap; I just wanted bullhorns). The freewheel and BB are next on my list; they work fine, just noisy.
