Um, okay dude who put drop bars on a mountain bike. But of course it was performance and scientifically proven.
Drop bars aren’t used on mountain bikes.

Some classic PVD laughs in there
I’m sure he wouldn’t consider that thing a mountain bike
HTA over 70° and it’s definitively just a road bike
those 1990s XC courses were mostly just roads too
but it has a dropper
i find the whole bike to be quite objectionable.
-1x on that bike??
-is that some silver housing and some white housing, or is it just the lighting?
-the pedals wtf
it’s a parts-bin build that they shot in a photo studio and put on a custom frame.

silver brake housing and white shift housing
TC I also like to do this
it makes it easier to tell which inline barrel adjuster does what
just always use yokozuna. brake cable is chonky and shift cable is skinny
Interrupter levers!
Straight post set at no particular height. The bike looks parts binnish for sure.

pretty sure those levers come with inserts to be used with traditional bars that flatten out the ramps.

tc: i kinda like it. Only unquestionably bad part is the clamp on cable stop on the stem instead of one mounted on a headset spacer
oh and the pedals i guess
