If it is a Stork, Stork does make good frames, and the componentry is also high end MTB race stuff. The big "however" is the bike's design...it's considered a hybrid. It lives somewhere between being a mountain bike and being a road bike, but could do neither very well. Lotta $$ for very little function=gimmick.
'Course, you just asked if anyone had one. Nope. I'm a Litespeed guy.

A friend and former colleague imports Storck bikes to the USA. So, I can confirm that the Porsche bike is in fact predicated on a Storck frame . However, if you were to do a cost comparison between the private label model and the actual retail bike, one would see a significant price hike for having the Porsche insignia on it . I have owned and ridden some of Storck's high end road bikes, and they were nothing short of work of art .
