I just got one, and I am totally jazzed on it. It's the same frame as Fuji makes (not so pretty TIG welded, so not stylie like the bike you're looking at above).
Anyhow, just something else to consider
I like the Windsor quite a bit, but I really want to do a conversion. I already had a Langster, but even then I really wanted a nice conversion. (My GF has since "stolen" the Langster from me).
They want $90 for this bike, plus a rear wheel, new tires, brake pads, cables, cranks, etc, it'd probably come out to about the same as the bikesdirect windsor.
It makes sense to just get a crate bike, but I really want a conversion!!
