Nice! I like colorful frames in general, and this one is very catchy
And for build with such a heavy frame/fork ... impressive final weight.
But 19c? Is that comfy enough?
At one point, many years ago, I tried 20c (ok, clincher), but it was unbearable (like I have wooden wheels) and after few weeks I throw away those tyres.
