Yeah, that's quite unpleasant. Hopefully it rides better than it looks. Not that I will ever be trying it out!!

Nice seatpost clamp design but is it more than design for design sakes?
Saw the same at the bike shop on a roadbike IIRC and it looked lovely

They have a unique 'style'. I think their road bikes are damn right ugly, but I'm sure others with love them.

Was there a crease in the designer's page?

I think the seat stays are the worst bit of that bike.
What's the bit under the downtube for? Fork bump stops?

Their steel road frames are class. I have one from the early 90's that could do with restoring, something that I've been meaning to do for years.

However their carbon creations are certainly an 'acquired taste'.

I don't see what the issue is, apart from a bit of design for designs sake, which other manufacturer's are also guilty of. It's certainly no worse than many other bike frames out there at the moment.

my comments were probably a bit too general - admittedly the older frames they did were actually nice to look at ๐Ÿ˜‰
