6'5 and large frame and it is still a touch too small (I wanted that). I need a really long seatpost or an extenda post. 5'8 and small would be good for technical riding or dh

Mael, Nice looking rig, welcome to the White Bike Club!
BTW, I could read the sticker on the drive side seat stay, but not the ones on the brake side. What do they say?

Hey mael, we forgot the most important stuff. How does the bike feel? Do you like it so far? What are ups and downs of that bike? Is it stock?
