I also got one of the slim chance 2.0 frames last year NOS and from the original purchaser. He also requested Etap only fittings, which wouldn't have been my first choice but it's growing on me.

I really like the ride with the slightly longer chainstays and pencil-thin seatstays. It has just enough snap for hard efforts but is noticeably comfortable.

I picked up an original slim back in the 90's secondhand and found it to be more flexy than most of the steel frames I've had. I sold it fairly quickly as a result. This 2.0 version is a significant improvement. I'm in the process of having Chris provide a segmented fork as well since mine came with a carbon enve. Not sure how much of the hands-on production, if any, that Chris is actually involved in but it is a nice bike and the price isn't terrible even on a new one. The website only lists disc-specific bike at this point but I believe you can contact him and get rim brake only if you want.
