Good Timing
The saddle in the picture is a San Marco, nice for long XC rides but right now I've got a Berserker on it. I got the frame by luck. I was debating getting an Imperial but had conflicting opinions on whether or not I would get a resonable seat position for trail rides. Called John P. at Evil to ask about the geometry, the SL was still a month or so from being announced but he swore me to secrecy and after hearing about it I ordered one. The more normal seat tube angle works well for me, I can ride it anywhere (I even did an epic XC trail in Whistler on it a few weeks ago).

Coldfire - the tires are Arrow Launches. nice tires....cheap, too. they cost me $36USD for the pair.
the frame....i like it a lot. BUT, one thing that really bugs is that i can't use Vs. it recently crossed my mind about selling the frame, but i decided to keep it. i waited about 4 months for this bike after ordering it, so i think i'd feel guilty about selling it. it really is good for everything. i'm about to build up some 26" wheels for it, so it will be truely versatile.
