Had my first ride on this frame thanks to the help of this forum. This is a medium frame with a 150mm one-up v2 dropper; I am 5 10,” and the seat is raised just a tad above the max insertion of the frame. This frame was ordered in January 2022, and there is no play in the rear shock bolt. My goal was to build this bike for around $2500 cad, which seemed impossible initially, but after I got the wheelset off a new Marin rift zone for $100 and a newly rebuilt lyric for $450 on the marketplace,,, I pulled the trigger. I believe it cost around $2800 with me making some splurges here and there from my local bike shop instead of buying online.

From my short ride today, I am stoked about how it rides. My other bike is a large 2021 Marin rift (not related to the wheelset), and I feel minimal compromise, if any, riding this larger travel frame. More to come after it has adequately been tuned and more time on the saddle.
