Different, certainly.  But a red chain ? I'm not sure.  Apart from that it looks like a decent package for the money. Good clearances, fittings for guards and a rack.  Pompino competitor.

The red chain certainly mings, but it's the built-in bottle opener saddle that sticks in my craw.

Question is why a NEW bike?
With all those handmade old lugged bikes around crying for some tlc and an ever emerging climate crisis!

Oh, that's a MAJOR improvement over the previous swobo fixed bike that Stif stocked (it didn't have any brakes).
