I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but like what I see so far - i.e., durable frame, functional and extremely upgradeable components, and plenty of room in the budget for all the necessary tweaks and add-ons. The main driving factor here is economics - at $1500 complete, I can add a set of 650b wheels, 650x47 knobbies, buy pedals, swap out bars and saddle, install the TRP HY/RD conversion, dropper post, and still have some cash left over for lunch. Having really thought about how I'm going to be using the bike, the idea of CF was not only excessive, but just plain unnecessary.

I've read their frames run big, but looking at the geometry of the 58, it seems pretty standard (58x57, 72 deg. head tube angle, 72.5 seat angle). Looks like only the smaller sizes are stretched. Anyone out there 6'0" - 6'1" with a 34-35 inch inseam on a Space Horse?
