This one is pretty neat. Could be for sale if anyone is stoked on it.

Check out that stem! Wow! What brakes are those?

I don't have a clue and I would study the Bike Pro catalog bitd. Maybe a prototype? Ringle maybe being in NJ?

I love those Scott Manthasuer finned brake pads!

I think these are something else; possibly Grove Innovation’s own thing, or a Ringle prototype that never went any further, as @don suggests.

Definitely not the production version of the WTB cantis.

Listen to a few PinkBike podcasts with Levi and Kaz talking and they say it over and over how good the bikes are now. It blows me away every ride how good a modern trail bike is.
