The build.... I kind of shot myself in the foot by asking for loads of expensive obscure stuff at the last minute which understandably couldn't be got.
Final build spec is something like:
Frame, fork, and bar are custom Stayer OMG, short-ish forks in that old-school XC image, one-off short-ish reach 780mm wide bullmoose bars with plenty of back and upsweep. Sam did a great job on these and they feel great on the bike. It's LONG - not necessarily in terms of reach but 1200mm+ wheelbase on a rigid bike is a lot of fun.
Wolftooth headset
Paul levers
Yokozuna Ultimo brakes
Middleburn chainset/34t mono ring, 1x1 w Wolftooth 20t sprocket
Custom Deep Custom Silver CNC Custom Chain Tensioner when it became clear that no, I couldn't have the Ingrid stuff that I, in my disorganisation, asked for last minute
Wheels are Hope Pro4 boost-(ish) on Stayer's own rims
29x2.8" Teravail rubber
Dropper
Brooks C17
