Are we sure OP isn’t mistakenly calling the bent seatstays “chainstays”?

I am not sure I follow which bend you mean. The chainstays are not perfectly straight in the horizontal plane. They jig-jag a bit to get around the fat tires and to clear the pedals. Is there some other aspect you are looking at? Now they say the $700 pre-sale ends on April 1. Do you think that will coincide with a fun April Fools Day trick?

Turns out today I got to ride Grant's Clem prototype, and didn't even have to change saddle height. It's terrific. It rides how I expected it to ride, meaning it disappeared, made me smile, and made me reluctant to return it to them. I don't know if I will pre-order, but if I do, the $150 they are paying me to adopt early will go towards a set of Bosco Bullmooses. That's the bar for that bike.
