why don't I ever hear talk of the IRO angus?

alright so about 3 months ago I ordered a leader frame, and they let me know it was on back order and would ship mid july, well now it is the end of july, and still no frame, so I'm thinking of calling and getting my money back for the leader frame and ordering an IRO
I was looking at IRO's site and checking out the Jamie Roy, and the Angus
I searched the forums and didn't hear much talk of the angus though.

. The angus has different shaped tubing than the mark v. The angus is round, the mark v is more oval. there may be more differences such as geometry but i don't know. my wife's mark v feels more like a road bike my angus (now sold) was more track-like.
