Pretty much same ht/st angle as my canyon exceed, I looked it up to see how it would ride.
Which begs the question, why buy that when you can buy mtb and fit rigid fork or suspension dependant on use.
On second look the reach is a shorter, hence running drops. 45mm shorter
Be interesting to see how it rides with that ht and drops.

You can't run road or GRX gearing (at the front anyway) on an MTB. You can with that.

A la Lael Wilcox.
Having said that, MTB are generally very long making drop bar conversion trickier, especially when it designed to be ridden with a short stem in the first place.

The updated Salsa Cutthroat is, well, interesting. 69 ht angle, short reach, 29x2.4", 445mm chainstays, rubber thumb screws to attach framebag.
