... please simple minds. sitting here with a cup of tea, dunking my malted milks and playing with the bike builder on the santa cruz website. just thought i'd share that 
Which bike?
just pratting about wwjr, heckler with green frame and yellow swinger looks nice (if you live in brazil) but they ain't got a matching fork!
Yup fork colours are rubbish. Need the black Pike option.
Played with the BLT (which I have). With X9 AM kit, £3992 and 28.46 lbs. Same spec BLTc is £4482 and 27.7lbs. £490 to save 3/4lb 😯
I quite like the TallBoy.
So to speak. Ahem.
Apparently, 'unprecedented stiffness' is worth £490... I have the aluminium version and that feels pretty stiff to me.

They don't mean the frame 😉
£490 for 3/4lb, thats nearly £1/g saved which is about where I draw the line (usualy measured as the differenc ein weight between basic stuff (deore/slx) and the 'upgrade' (usually xt).
