Thanks a bunch, it is a real beauty I was so happy to get that frame. Maybe it is a hair larger than I want and way more aggressive than my back can handle but I could stare at her for days and not get tired. Also sorry for the late response I haven't logged in for a while.

Thank you so much, sorry I didn't respond sooner! It was a ridiculous build but I might end up swapping stems I want something more upright honestly and this 1A is sexy as hell but my back doesn't love it anymore so I don't ride the bike as much as I would like to.
