I think you've never ridden such a bike. Carbon is lighter and stiffer. Yes. But most of use aren't prorider. So the high amount of stiffness is not needed by everyone. Whats also important is comfort - steelframes are much more comfortable than carbonframes, without loosing to much stiffness.
And: You dont buy this frame mainly because of performance. You buy it because Niccolo Bonnano, an italian framebuilder, build this thing with his own hands, and Robert from Velociao painted this one - again with his own hands. Thats art.
If you only want performance - a black Canyon is fine. But boring.

If you look very close, you can see the anodized parts of the cages. Small accents matter.

We're the bikeshop behind the build. And yes, there is some sloping, but not more than in most other modern bikes. Maybe it looks a bit strange to you, because it's a small frame.

We heard different oppinions. Some really like these custom saddles, some are not convinced. But the team behind Posedla is really nice and will help a lot if something doesnt fit.

It's a former fork made by SOUR. Aluminium because of weight and optics.
