As mentioned by Jonba, Fireline has a ‘special’ seatstay bridge but in my opinion it only makes it look ‘dated’. The internal cabling (Titus) for both dropper and gears/rear brake, offsets that vs the exposed cables of Vandal…specially the ones under BB!
In comparison to Scandal, I guess it’s a material Ti vs alloy preference and the same applies to colour scheme (raw Ti – amazing vs paint…) but the new colours scorched hearth, neon whatnot and other, do look great 😉
Still prefer my Vandal, a proper long day work horse with chunky tires/wheels and a pure bred on some syncros/rocket Rons combo for local xc series
