Although these are critical features, even the "features" section doesn't mention them - only the specs. Could the marketing people be so daft?
Spec lists an Alfine chain tensioner. That does look like whats in the pic. The front Alfine dynamo hub is actually quite small, and does appear correct in the pic. Also has two cables going to it which would be brake and electric
Honestly? I don't care about the frame, if PBK drops a % off sale and still has the bike at that price point I might pick one up, if for no other reason than to strip it for parts to convert one of my other bikes. I prefer a more agressive geometry, which that bike doesn't have.
