hi there luxaeterna.
yes the frame quality is good, and the steering system works fine dont matter if it is -30°C or +40°C
i got the messanger now sice near 3 years and no problems with frame cracks. and i use it everyday.
sometimes i load 60kg and even this works fine.
sure here and there you can find some rust film, but thats no problem.
and i have the alfine 8 with 38 chainwheel and a 19 rear sprocket.
