[Closed] Two Souls Frames

QH is a real do it all as hard as you fancy steel hardtail, 140mm travel fork, now available with 142x12 and also in Ti.
Sold my Helius CC, rides better, far much more fun, now finding it as my go to bike for a 3-4 hour ride on local trails, everyone who has seen or ridden it really wants one.
This is the bike I won't sell on, makes me smile just thinking about some of the stupid things I'm riding now

Ok - the seat tube angle is ultra slack - kind of weirdly so. How does that affect the ride - presumably great down hill but I imagine climbing not so much . The tendancy for front to lift must be a real problem...
Thanks for the comments

I've no direct experience of 2Souls frames, so in the best tradition of STW I'm going to pile in anyway:

* my understanding is the Slim Jim is just a cheaper (heavier?) limited edition run of the QH
* I ride a Canfield Yelli Screamy, which is in the same class of slack at the front short at the back 29er HTs, which I run with 120mm forks. It climbs best stood up and given a bit of welly. If you're interested in this kind of bike, look at the Yelli and Singular Buzzard too. But I can't give you a direct comparison as I've not ridden a QH (and only a few minutes on a Buzzard, but a buddy has one, he adores it and rides it good).
* IMO these bikes have 29er HT geometry nailed. They're fun, go hard if that's your thing, and a bit forgiving if you're a bit of a mincer too (ahem). They won't match something like a Niner Air 9 Carbon in flat out pace from the off ... do you care? I don't.

What would get me to move on from my Yelli? Something comparable in ti or carbon or nice steel perhaps ....
