Here's one I have had done for a while and ridden a ton during the pandemic.
It was a well traveled frameset crisscrossing the atlantic at least a couple times. It came to me via trade for an equally cool smaller climbmax that might have been posted here already.
Here she is in the UK as a built up ... I got it as a frameset.
I went with a pretty basic black and white, XT, Syncros, and Brodie bits build. It turned out nicely I think and it rides even better than it looks Only thing I might try to do is to squeeze some skinwall nobby nics on it, but its pretty perfect the way it is.
