    Aluminium Hardtail

    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,

    Aluminium Hardtail

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