:) Looks good,is it up to being thrown around on street or a track? And why a caliper brake?

good point- on not wanting to like it
For me- it's not in anyway meant to replace a 20 inch - as nothing can in my opinion.
but it's a hell of a lot closer than any or these ridiculous 'fixie feels just like a bmx' claims.
I've rode it in the bowl at Cantelowes and it feels alot like my 20inch (as it's the blueprint for the geometry).
The adaption from a 20 is pretty seamless.- but I won't be replacing my 20 anytime soon.
I only have a couple of prototypes at the moment, but if you're ever in the area, you're welcome to have a go on it.
Meticulous
you're right the seat sucks for comfort, i've just bought a slim padded seat for it.
Sweebeats, yep I wanted it pretty tight and responsive, and I'm loving the tanwalls at the moment

the quality and metals share the same quality manufacturing as Deluxe BMX.
It wasn't designed for Dan Lacey style 3s down a 20 step but it's certainly designed to hold up to a minimum of smooth airing and jumping.
re the caliper- I wanted to keep the bike as sleek as possible, (I was almost even tempted to go for a 1inch headset, then I woke up)
I've found double pivot calipers really strong performers, nice and compact.
