Liking that a lot, very cool and looks spot on. How's it ride with the heavy hub?

Takes a little time to get used to, but I'm riding a Rohloff bike for over 7 years now and can't hardly remember how it was before

Overall weight of the bike above is 11.1 KG without pedals
Feels pretty light and agile on the trails

That looks sweet. Was the frame specially designed for the lefty?

Nice, but the unmatched rotors would trouble me. Oh, and the Rohloff too.
Do they do it is a recumbent? Hahaha.

it's got a 44mm headtube (id) so suits all from 11/8 to tapered to 1,5
lenght was specced to suit the Lefty without spacer
