Not sure why you care so much to not care.
The “mono-stay”
is the seat stay. The whole unit from the seat to the rear dropout is the mono-stay. The chainstays don’t look any different from what the catalog says.
Your comments sound more like you are concerned than you are curious. There is nothing wrong with the bike and Moots has told you what it is.
Yes, 2009 is as far back as I can find in regards to their catalog. I have also scoured the entire internet to try and find something that comes close. I have found one bike that appears to be the Pyschlo/Routt build with a YBB and a brazed on Caliper Mount whereas every single other version I find is Cantilever.
For all I know the original owner is on here and might want to chat. For those who seem to be bothered by my inquiry - I dunno', just stop paying attention?
This one isn’t a YBB

Same bike. Same configuration.
