Anyone with a Fairlight Strael? How does it stack up?

[Baron Blubba]

This bike, in its 2.0 and 3.0 iterations, has received glowing (as in, full marks) reviews from several websites, mostly based in the UK. I'm a little skeptical, and of the mindset that these encomiums might be bolstered by some amount of homerism, since Fairlight is a UK brand.

Still, gosh darn am I tempted, especially in that nice nice purple colorway.

Does anyone have a Fairlight? Can you tell me how it rides compared to other bikes you own, steel or otherwise?
