The Moxie seat tube angle isn’t as steep in reality as the chart claims - I realised this when I saw these pics on bike radar:
Cotic BFeMAX @ 150mm

Pipedream Moxie @ 160mm

So I emailed Pipedream and they said that @140mm the actual seat angle is 72.5 deg and that at my ~750mm saddle height the virtual seat tube angle would be ~75.25 deg. So with a 160mm fork it would be ~74.25 deg.
That was a costly bit of information because I then couldn’t think of a reason to not buy one…
