Knowing BH, I'd be VERY surprised if that bike wasn't designed from the ground up by their Foothill Ranch team (with Dave Weagle riding shotgun). Weagle designed their entire MTB line including the Lynx 6 (Vital has a review bike, but has yet to publish the review - Steve Wentz was the primary test rider). I've yet to see them use off the shelf anything on any of their bikes; road, CX or MTB.
