Correct me if I'm wrong but it's 3D printed so there's no welds to begin with.

Kinda looks like a Prova. Almost costs as much as one, too. The welds are not "invisible" - they are likely sanded down and then painted over. It is interesting to see a "big" brand like this adopting this construction technique from some of the custom builders.

Nice looking bike! But what's that huge-ish "box" by the front derailleur? Can you stash a TPU tube inside?
