looks a great deal but can folks answer a few questions

what does these ride like as a road/tourer/firetrack bike?
What does the bike weigh built up?
Sizing, a 18 or 19.5 for a 6ft rider?
Do not want drops so assuming it can be run with flat bars or low riser?
Any alternatives?

All help welcome.

The only thing that makes it "monstercross" is the inclusion of the Midge bars. It's not a drop-specific frame I don't think, just a bit of niche-mongering.

On-One steel frames aren't light, it'll build fairly sturdy.

I'm 5'10" and take an 18" in Surly KM, which is fairly similarly set out.

I've got a sneaking suspicion racks and discs will take a bit of bodging for touring purposes, certainly used to with these.

Looks like the rack mounts will work very well on the new swap-out frame.

It would be too long for me with drop bars. I wouldn't be surprised if On-one would swap the Midge bar in the bundle for one of their other bars if you asked nicely!
