it's bad because there is excessive tine vibration under braking. i still have it because it's a frame built for 650c wheels and it's not easy to find a 650c carbon 1" threaded fork these days. and i'm too cheap to pay upwards of 1-200 dollars for one.

oh, and it's painted and polished to match the frame. and it's not one of my favorite bikes anyway. and no, i'm not going to go into WHY it's not a favorite...
