The bike pictured weighs about 42 lbs with downhill tubes, steel spring, Deetraks, Heavy @$$ e.13, and Hussefelt components. With a ti spring, lighter tubes, lighter wheels, and a lighter chainguide there is no reason why it couldn't come in at 38-39lbs. I had a chance to test ride that bike before it was sent off to interbike and I was impressed. I rode it in the 64 degree head angle position and it handled amazing. The bike feels much lighter than the weight would suggest. It pedals well and the suspension action is VERY smooth. It is also extremely quiet which was a nice touch. The best way to describe this bike would be that it is confidence inspiring. Hope this answered some people's questions...
