It rides like a Moots style soft-tail but with rigid forks. The rear end works well, although I had to swap the bumper for a newer one to ride as the green was too soft and old and I'm too fat and old. The stem, however, is true to it's name and flexes (mainly side to side but that is because of my power, honest!)
Because of the amount of steel I've used in this bike if feels reassuringly solid, just not stiff. Comfy, but not performance focused.
In all, it's a bit like me:Old, unusual, at one time cutting edge but now a bit funny looking, solid, a bit rattley, expensive to run, high maintenance but a lot of fun on sunny days.
