Sorry to go off on a tangent. Everyone please feel free to return to the OP's topic.
Hmm. Likes threatening black-on-black hardware, hugely tall - those 29s look like 26s against the frame - dude, are you Darth Vader...?
Have you thought of trying dirt drops on that bike? I know getting shifting sorted out would be a pain, and it might be best to wait a few months for the new rumoured Salsa bars, but that bike looks like it would really suit them.
