I also saw one in person at International Bike in Allston and although I wouldn't buy one, it's really not a bad looking bike. I don't mind the fork, but I just don't think it goes with the rest of the bike. Oh and the one that they had set up there was a ss and not a fixie so maybe that's why it looked off to me. The wheels scare me a bit too 'cause they look about as strong as a cheese wheel. I agree about the handlebars too but with a few modifications I'm sure that bike could be one hell of a looker. Have fun with it!
