A mate also has a 100km for sale. PM. Price negotiable. Cheers,

Great discussion. Thanks all:)

Is this correct?

Some shops are running out XTC1 for $2000 (as I have been looking at alloy hardtails on special). Scott Scale Scale 35 about 10.25kg and $2300 at the moment (with a mix of carbon and alloy). Cheers,

Some of you have listed some pretty light bikes. Any chance you could list the major components, ie fork, wheels, group-set etc. Cheers,

Thanx. Went to one of the LBS today and the 2010 Giant's with a 16" frame have a longer TT then the 2009 17" frames. Interesting. Cheers,

Hi, Did you get the frame sorted? Those frames look great value given the Aussie dollar at the moment. Cheers,
