Re:
Alpitudes, one in Greece and one on the Isle of Man.
The 2009 one has 2006 Marzocchi Z1 RC2 ETA forks and the 2012 frame has 2013 Marzocchi 55 RC3 Ti Evo2.
Both run 1x10 (30T chainring, 11-40 cassette, Zee mech).
Anyway, I like Alpitudes - I don't know why you don't see more of them, but then I don't see many steel hardtails anyway.
