Reported to have a 5lb frame. Check the write up at MBAction. Could be my next frame, but hte Ti rocker arm could make this one out of my range $$!

The price doesn't seem all that bad to me, at least it's not much more expensive that the previous generation.

Looks very interesting. I think the best part is they finally made the top tubes longer. That 5 pound weight seems suspicious, they specify it as FRAME weight so that leads me to believe its actually around 5.5 pounds with the shock.

We'll just have to wait and see, soon enough they'll be in.......

Santa Cruz quotes Frameset weights complete with shock but as we all know, things in general are a little heavier than advertised.
