Love it, cant imagine stiffness will be anything other than 'wet fish' though

My old DH bike weighed 8 times that....

Totally would if I could though! That would be my lottery win frivolous spend idea actually, one of each type of bike (DH, XC, AM, road and all the niches in between) and make them all silly silly light!

Why not go SS though if the objective was just to make the worlds lightest bike?

I thought it all looked reasonably useable until that spoiled it.. quite a project bike though. Unsuprisingly, originally owned / started out by a German )
