Re:

Basically it is a carbon frame. Weighs in slightly under 2.5lbs with the bb and seat clamp
verified at my works calibrated postal scale.

She climbs like a scalded goat. Very short seat stays.

Handles most descents, honestly like a short travel full susser.

Shines in the tight single track and accelerates very quickly for a 29er.

No chatter at all on the stuttery bumps.

Bought the frame on the bay and slowly gathered bits to complete it.
Fox Float Kashima 120, bike is spec'd for a 100 but could not find a deal at the time
I've no plans to go to a 100 travel as I am totally enjoying shredding the gnar the way she is.
Full XT drivetrain
X0 trails brakes
Roval wheelset mated to my new fave tire (Maxxis Ikon)

So in a nutshell more thrilled than I anticipated for my 1st 29er

Imho Foundry makes a heck of a frame
