I find the deep blue and white scheme very handsome, I like the old-school plain logos, and I'm always a sucker for chrome. I haven't put many miles on it yet, but I do like the feel of the bike. It a 531 db frame so it's light and responsive enough for my tastes, but not too responsive. It's also nice and straight-- something you never really know until you finish the build and take it out for a ride. On the other hand, I'm still getting the components dialed in and have had several issues, but I'm slowly working through them. The main thing I don't like is the 10-tooth jump to the low gear on the freewheel-- it's nice to have the low gear but the change is jarring.
