Well, to me it is definately a Cool bike!
First things I noticed were nice Syncros fork and you must be a tall guy

, with the seat so high on an already ML or L frame.
Seems to be a nice build up with Salsa stem, Syncros post, Cook Bros(?) cranks.... Are that brakes V-brakes? If so, serious fanatics would argue they don't match with the era of the Syncros forks etc. BTW is that a suspension corrected frame? Does the bike handle well with the short forks? (would be great to know as I have a few Switchblades lying around and my matching Judy possibly won't last 100 years)
The overal visual appeal of the bike is great!
