Hmm. Doubt it was the same frame. As far as I know, the maker (Aegis) only makes for themselves at this point, they don't private label anything.

As to the curved seat tube, my understanding is that it's used to make the ride more strongly damped rather than to bring the wheelbase shorter. The arced tube flexes differently than a straight one.

I love mine, and was really interested to see that one fixed (with dropouts apparently from Aegis.)
