This is actually what makes the Maestro look shit more than frame/wheel size etc - standover. They look like trash with a long seat tube/high top tube.Horizontal tt’s are yucky.
This paint job looks like a really shit attempt to fake a chameleon/flip-colour paint job.
I think the modern demands of slackerer and longerererer are creating a generation of pretty sick looking bikes. Short seat tubes for longer droppers and low top tubes for better standover / ability to size up plus slack head angles = frames that are in better proportion with their wheelsize (with the exception of small 29ers) and generally rad aesthetics.All bikes look like shit in those design circumstances.

I've never had a bottle cage and I never will. I may not be cool, but I am definitely too cool for that. I wish that I could say the se thing about fingerless gloves, but I was duped into it for my first pair. The shop offered a free bottle and cage with my first bike. I explained I wasn't that lame...but hekindly swapped in some gloves. More fool me! Never again dork fingers!Unironically this...and I lived in a desert most of my life.
Ken oath. Camelbaks for lyyyyyyyyfffeeeI've never had a bottle cage and I never will. I may not be cool, but I am definitely too cool for that.
So good looking it had to turn it's back to the camera and hide in the grass.I still think the old 2010 Anthem X (before they went all stupid bent tubes everywhere) was one of the best looking bikes ever...
Dammit. Just when I decided no more new bikes for a while. This is bloody gorgeous...
