They're currently £150, the swap drop mk3 looks to be over £200, the website claims the 18" weighs under 5lbs. Many cromo/520 frames seem to the other side of 5lbs and more £££
the mk2 does now have a toptube the same size as the downtube though (where it used to be smaller?)
My current hardtail is overforked as it is and as such the geometry is out, even if I bought a shorter sub 2kg fork the XC racable 6011/6061 alu. frame can be a bit brutal to ride
Not that it really makes much difference but its over 5 years and the dull grey colour is getting pretty scuffed, and the rear dropout is worn a bit
