I'm on my second -- my first died in a crash.

Generally I'd say that it is the best mid-range frameset out there. Decent steel, and the geo is tight but with minimal toe-overlap (speaking from a 55 or 56 (forget which I have).

The BB is appropriately high for a bike that could legitimately be raced by a beginner on the track. The seatstay bridge has a brake hole, but there are no cable guides, which strikes me as silly. Like, why have one but not the other? But of course that's a totally insignificant issue.

If you go lower down the market you're going to find heavier bikes with lower-end steel and slacker geo (with the exception of the pista). Going higher up, the prices spike significantly for anything new. Pista concepts and fuji track pro's are significantly cheaper that high-end steel.

Good bikes. Get one.
