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 [url= http://www.konaworld.com/09_kula_en.cfm ]Kula[/url] 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. ๐Ÿ™‚
