I have seen one in the flesh so to speck,I think they look great but I can never understand a new bike with no gears.Thats just my view and dont let it put you off.Again I think the frame and the general look is fantastic though.

I have the Mashup up version, think it's a good mix of tough vs light. Don't think anyone has ever had a bad word for them

I have had a bowery ( 2 actually ) for almost year and a half now and I love it, I changed the forks to Carbon, switched the bars, got wheels built, and new saddle so far. The frame is pretty good, I am not sure what exactly you want to hear about ir, bit I find it very confortable to ride.
