    Can somebody point me in the direction/recommend an xc frame that has a slacker than usual head angle, something like 68degree, that suits a 100mm fork.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks, but I think with a 4" fork the summerseason frame head angle will be close to the norm.

    And ideally looking for something alot lighter.

    Doubt you'll find one (at least that's reasonably "xc" light; suppose it'd need a biggish front end for the extra forces)- and what strong 100mm fork are you going to use on it ??

    Look at Konas. For example, the head angle of a Kula is listed as 67.8 – 68.5 degrees, depending on frame size. Plus a Kula frame probably weighs about half as much as a 456 Summer Season. 🙂
