SE vs Create

So i'm in the market for my first ss/fixie flip-flop hubbed bike.

at first i was going to go for a create but i've heard from a couple of my friends who ride fixies that create are prone to falling apart after a while?

basically is the extra £100 for an SE worthwhile paying?

thanks in advance.

Well, Create has an incredibly annoying website with no substance at all. Did they pay some designer from ten years ago to create a site with a bunch of flash, in order to sell cheap hi-ten bikes?

I compared the limited spec listed for the Create with the spec of the Lager. I would take the Lager over the Create in a heartbeat. In the US, I see the Lager offered at US$480-500. Even a Windsor Hour from Bikesdirect at $280 delivered is a better bike than the Create. SE offers a better frame, and I'm sure the rest of the spec is much better than whatever Create has to offer.
