I have built bike with this frame (size M) for my girlfriend in september. I think it is the best downcountry hardtail frame at this moment - good reach numbers, good saddle position, perfect headtube angle (66.0 with 120 mm fork).

I have found only two problems:
1. Chainline must be 53 mm or wider. With smaller numbers chainring is rubbing chainstay. Checked with 32, 34 and 36-teeth chainrings on M8100 crankset (52 mm) and installed M8000-B (53.4 mm) without any problems.
2. Some calipers with 160mm rotors can not be fitted into the rear stays (M6000). But I haven't any problems with M8100 and M7100 with 180 mm.

Yesterday I have recieved the same frame for me and my friends building another two bikes with this frame. Chameleon painting is awesome.

Looks good, I'm strongly considering this frame. Can I ask how tall is you GF? I'm 5'7, thinking the 17" (medium) should be good. Also, what do you think of the seat stay? Is this a compliance thing? It looks less strong then a straight stay.

My GF is 164 cm tall. 17" frame with 45 mm stem and 760 mm handlebar (9 degrees backsweep).

She have noticed some vertical compliance on rough surface. And I haven't noticed any stiffness problems during sprinting and pump track riding on this bike.
I will try this frame in size L soon.

What's the weight of this frame?
Does it have ZS type headset so angleset can be installed?

Frame weight is 1.106 kg.
Headset - integrated, bearings is installed directly into the frame
