PRESS RELEASE: Velouria CyclesVelouria Cycles proudly introduces Sober Titanium, our latest trail-enduro hardtail model. We have updated with a UDH rear derailleur hanger to enhance drivetrain compatibility and added new threads for accessories on the front of the frame. Additionally, we have incorporated a quality detail: a 3D-printed titanium chainstay reinforcement that offers both strength and aesthetic appeal.
We have designed a frame built for hard mountain use, crafted from 3Al 2.5V tapered titanium. It features ISCG05 mounting, a 73mm BSA threaded bottom bracket to prevent noise and malfunctions, internal cable routing to shield them from potential damage, and short seat tubes to accommodate long-travel adjustable seatposts.
With a 64º head angle, 75.5º seat tube angle and long reach, we have engineered a geometry conducive to stability on descents and jumps, while ensuring an efficient pedaling position for long mountain rides.
Available in four sizes, it is designed for 140-160mm forks, suggested stem length of 30-50mm.

The kink is indeed a weird choice. With such a chainstay length I think they could have gotten away with a straight seattube.
In my useless opinion, that much stack paired with a short chainstay is not going to play well on a flat turn. It will be a blast in a straight line but front end grip might be an issue in specific situations.
The frame is really well built, sturdy though light - would buy again.
All the of them!
