The Good
Short and responsive, you only need to wish a Bolt through technical terrain.
No chain growth, this frame lets you put power down over anything without pedal kickback.
Simple single pivot is a joy to maintain with incredibly long lasting 6808 2RS main pivot bearings around the BB.
Integrated tapered headset is easy to find and install, no special tools, no tight squeezes.
The Suspension is very placid, it barely bobs but responds very smoothly and predictably when things get bumpy.
This frame turns heads, there aren't many like it.
Jumps just like a DMR should but with less stress in the knees.
While 125mm seems like short travel, this frame feels like an enduro with way more travel thanks to the smooth operation and concentric pivot.
Plenty of space for 2.4" enduro tyres (I'm running Continental Der Kaisers).
Climbs very nicely.
Open to any fork you like with choices from 120mm up to 160mm and a tapered headset.
The swapouts open up more options including 12x135mm, 12x142mm, 9mm horizontal, 9mm vertical and a 12x142mm +8 swapout which pushes the rear wheel back 8mm to allow the use of 27.5 wheels or greater mud clearance, a 2.6" 26 wheel fits perfectly.
200mm shock size makes upgrading the shock very easy and the frame can fit a 205mm shock with minor geometry changes.
Ultra low standover allowing unobstructed movement.
Bomb-proof tough.
The Bad
30mm seat clamp is hard to find, I ended up forking out for Hope.
On the heavier side.
Overall Review:

An awkward seat clamp and bit weight are hardly a problem. This frame is truly all mountain and does so with grace and speed. An easy frame to ride and maintain.
