Yeah. It is a custom but I think the owner is just content with having spacers and a flat angled stem. To be fair, he may have chosen the layback post because those Brooks saddles don't go back very far on the rails, and he may like his bum to be quite far back over the BB for comfort. You may say "but then why didn't he get a more relaxed seat tube?" Maybe he didn't want to ruin the geometry of the bike and still be able to use it for other things, such as track racing.
