Nice that Inbred Ti29er. I have one of these frames. Bought new in 2007. They really are a fantastic riding bike. I have kept it down the years as it rides so nice. Had it sent back to Lynskey under warranty to be repaired twice (cracks on headtube junction and wishbone stay) . Even sold it, regretted that and bought it back.
Aside from the lovely polished and coloured frame mine has a few very subtle differences. Tubes the same but drop outs and cable routing different.
I seem to remember when they came out the issue with rear caliper clearance on larger rotors was mentioned. Especially with BB7s. I think they said 140/160 rear only because of that.
Edit: Yes it was because most brakes in those days were still IS mount (eg Hope Mono Minis), BB7s were some of the first post mount brakes.
