I'd call it celadon. in the 60s and 70s, MB offered it as a color for their cars. It was amazing. And that SV looks great, too.

They also lowered their price about $350 and offered as a frameset, but I did not see a price for that. I emailed and requested.

I think the price drop corresponds to dropping the Dura-Ace/Ultegra mix in favor of straight Ultegra.

RIP lavender. But the new color is sweet, too.

That derailleur definitely looks like DA.

It does look like DA.

I was basing my assumption off of the verbiage on their website where all mentions of Dura-Ace have been removed. The yellow one pictured on the bottom of the site even has a DA9100 crank. So who knows.

I also noticed they have a link to a bunch of 'next level upgrades.' Doesn't offering a bunch of customization on this bike defeat the purpose of having a ready-made option vs. the regular Speedvagen line?

Will do. I'll also follow up with a question re: DA.

My guess for frameset price: $3,800.

I'm above recommended saddle height for a 56. Am I that lanky? I don't feel like I am.

$3,395 includes a frame, painted to match Enve fork, and alloy seat mast topper in matte army green or matte citron.

We're also happy to accessorize out the frameset with some painted stem, frame pumps, and hubs if that interests you at all?

as much as I love lavender and have a lavender bike I think this color is much nicer.

it's just a fluoro green bike? This is like Apple releasing a gold colored iPhone. All in good fun, of course.
