Steve from Yeti's custom one-off Yeti 575

I stumbled upon this very trick 575 yesterday while browsing the Yeti website. Shown above is Yeti employee Steve's custom one-off Yeti 575. It features custom geometry (longer top tube) to fit Steve, and also a special custom paint scheme. It also has some other trick bits like a custom painted carbon rear triangle, tapered headtube, welded-on ISCG tabs and an e.thirteen LG1 chain guide.
