I admit it does look a little odd at the moment - Im pretty undecided myself, as to wether or not twas a good idea to spray it or not !! The photos do make it look wierd though - its better in real life. It needs a seat. If only to stop me catching my nuts every time i sit down. and hopefully give it some shape at the back. It needs a booster - but mine doesnt fit as the bosses are too far apart for my viz carbon one !!! It doesnt look as good as the pure .. It rides very differently to the pure .... brake is fairly poor without the booster so i was unable to really rag it good sidehops (obviously) awesome bunnyhoops, good front wheel stuff - but because my body is in a wierd (for me) position my taps are abit down as I kinda get the timing all wrong ... ah well - it just feels abit wierdy after 2.5 years on the pure. oh well out of the dark (golden?) age and into modern times for me .....
