Wow! Very Nice!
Who's is it, if it's not one of us?
That weight is excellent, I'm aiming to build a light pair of x57's for myself and the missus for touring use, and am probably aiming in the 11 to 12 Kg area, with Fournalles and discs.

Interesting to see the brass cable ferrules, I didn't realise these were used on the x57 bikes.

I found it on what appears to be a South American MTB forum.
Someone from Chile:

You have the description of the components used in the build.

Love the KCNC stuff on it, but blimey! it must have cost a bomb to put that 957 together, it must belong to a true PRO~FLEX addict!

Gnarly. Radical, even.

(i.e. very 90's-chic. ;))
