I've never been a fan of raw frames (and I firmly believe Intense frames should be red, even if only one of my four ever was!) but the finish on that CK hub looks awesome. It's amazing how the frame still looks very modern compared to their current stuff, but the head angle looks so steep when you see it side on!

Thanks.
The head angle should be somewhere around 65°, the fork is 180mm and 27.5". That's fine for me. I would have preferred shorter chainstays and longer reach.

That's deceptive then as I'd have said it was steeper from the pics! 65 deg is pretty reasonable on 27.5", especially if you're after more trail than super steep enduro stuff. What fork was the stock geo based on?
