ordered this a couple months ago. Wanted single speed and couldn't find a bike just how I wanted it. I've been riding a 29er steel single speed for 5 years or so.
finally put it all together, really happy with it so far. The frame isn't perfect, but plenty good enough for me. The biggest issue I had was the rear brake posts. Not enough clearance for the rotor to spin and not perpendicular either. I realize I could get a tool to do this or have a shop do it. For now some washers are doing the trick. A few passes with the dremel got enough clnc for the rotor.
19.5 lbs as it sits in the photo. Still waiting on some carbon wheels in the mail, and a slightly wider front tire. With those last two things I'll go tubeless. Also ordered a longer rear brake tube so I can run the tube inside the frame, too short to do it now.

First ride today. The fork and brakes are amazing. dropping 11 lbs from my old bike is fairly noticeable as well. I'm 5'9", 170 lbs. This 17" size seems just right. Also my first time for a tapered head tube and front thru axle. Those are a huge improvement for a 29" wheel.
Oh, frame was 1134 grams. That's with no seat post clamp, headset, or rear axle, but with the rear axle mount installed as it sits in the photo. The rear axle that came with the bike was 73 grams. The included seat post clamp was 22, and the included headset was 70 without the cap.
