    Hi ibar!

    Got one last October in Penny Farthing on Wexford St. for about 600 euro. I commute about 6miles a day on it (3 into town and 3 out).

    Find it very very quick around town. I was on a mountain bike previously so found the stiff ride took a bit of getting used to but its twice as fast.

    Only thing I had to do was remove the quick release and replace with proper bolds. I Dropped it in for a service at christmas, get cables tightened up etc and it needed very little work done. Have had to replace the rear tube once.

    Considering I'm on it 7 days a week, rain and all I've had no complaints at all. Slight rusting on chromy bits and bolts around the breaks but thats it.

    Not sure if they still have em in stock though.

    Cheers
