The bike is just wonderful, it's rolling well enough on tarmac, if a bit a slow when the road turns upwards, and monster-trucks over anything I'm brave enough to attempt. I 'beautified' the stack a bit with some nice bits from nitto, and actually found myself grateful for the low standover on a few rough rides recently.
Excuse the bar angle, it looks pretty ridiculous (especially when the bike is positioned with the front wheel higher than the rear) but works nicely for descending and bridleways.
FD isn't shifting down, I think I need a longer BB to sort it.
Other small jobs, that i'll do in the medium-term:
-try tubeless
-get a bottlecage dropper for the under DT mount
-pedals, always pedals
-revamp guards
-prettier crankset
A couple more
