Yep, was a nice surprise upgrade after ordering a 2016. I must say, the whole process of dealing with this purchase has been my best yet. Big props to those mentioned in the OP. Frothing to build and ride it!

Invisiframe done, went way better than the first time I did it! Awesome product. You really can't see it unless you get right up close for a sniff. Build commences tonight. Knackered though, won't finish...

Last couple of tweaks today and it's ready to roll. Smooth, quiet and awesome up the street, hitting the trails Monday and can not wait. Check the op for pics n spec.

first runs today, and it went beautifully. After getting half way up the first climb to realise I hadn't tightened the saddle bolts, everything ran smooth as silk. The bike blew me away. It climbed as well as my Sight c7.2 did, and was noticeably more stable on descents. And I don't say that lightly as I rate the sight extremely highly. Day 1 and a bit of placebo effect, but I see some seriously good times ahead on this animal.

Hurts. Requires Money. And is nerdy.
Fuck yeah dude! Sounds like such an awesome bike. All the reviews of like every transition is glowing, it's like every bike they pump out is gold. So rad.

It's a very sweet bike in the flesh too. Following it down Cressy it looked planted.
