Not that it is even remotely like anything I would ever own, but, glorybe yes, that is lovely Psychle.
Dunno what the fuss about IFs is, seems to be overpriced to get a “cool” label.
It might well be a generational thing; IF were set up from the remenants of Fat City Cycles after they shut up shop and for riders of a certain generation, that’s more than enough cachet to make them cool even before you get close to their frames.
When they launched their first mountain bike, the Steel Deluxe, back in ohh, must have been 1996, MBI did a head to head review between that and a Yeti ARC.
The review raved about both bikes, but what it didn’t say is that the reviewer liked to IF so much, he actually bought it.
Yes, they are a ‘cool’ brand, but their heritage and the folklore that surrounds them is kind of deserved.
