I was planning to build a commuter and winter bike on Pompino frameset but it is just hard to pass on when a full bike costs as much as frameset from Planet X.

Do you think (considering I would probably swap brakes for BB7, fit Bluemels mudguards and rack for commuting) this can be a good bike for everyday all-year commuting as well as some fun riding as winter bike so my shiny gravel doesn't eat the road salt?
The track ends on it seem very short, does it create any problems in everyday use as the chain wears and needs retensioning?
