Lovely.
I'm also impressed that you photographed it at an angle to prevent us from measuring the saddle-bb distance.

theses bike are actually amazing, its a pity they arnt well known (over here anyway), my own weighs nothing for what it is (between 13-14 kg), im actually afraid to go near a hardtail as this thing gives me so much confidence 0 -
