Is that a 26" wheeled hardtail? They are so 2011. Totally redundant, how can you even ride it?

It does look nice though.

Yet again, another silly billy with wrong frame size and too much seatpost up their back hole.

WHY would be a good question, are the stw massive midgets that want to get high.

It's a large frame and the Ns surge is designed to be very compact so when you do drop the saddle it's real fun to ride downhill .

I like it. Nicely understated. I went a bit mad and got yellow bars when black might have looked better.

Hmm
Personally:
Thomson seatpost on a hardtail? Aren't they meant to be quite stiff? For Thomson money I'd probably have gone on-offer carbon post and pace carbon grease/paste, (or maaaaaybe a USE shockpost)
XT crankarms, but you've ditched all the chainrings? As far as I can work out, almost all the 36?g weight difference between SLX and XT is in the chainrings (alu, carbon/steel, alu vs. steel, composite/steel, basic alu

"another silly billy with wrong frame size and too much seatpost up their back hole"
Eh? Its a 130?mm (more?) forked hardtail with 70?mm stem, HR up front, I don't get the impression its built up to be a long TT efficient pedaller?
