i like the purple color.. 
You become the new Miyata king here ?!
Nice all those H-Ball goodies. What surprises me A LOT on your bike is that it has an aluminium rear instead of a steel rear. The Elevation 2,000 in the review I posted in the scan section has a steel tail and the frame featured in this 6(!) pages Miyata ad too => here!
So far I reasoned a frame that combined an alu front triangle with an alu tail was always an Elevation 5,000.
I can see your bike has the alu tail because the brakestuds are bolted, at the dropout it is bolted... while with steel there is brazing at those places.
