I am looking to build a light 29'er full-suspension bike. Does anyone know the weights (in medium) for the following frames:

Turner Sultan
Niner Rip9
Niner Jet9
GF Superfly100
Lenz Leviathan 29x4.0
Santa Cruz Tallboy

Thanks!

A large orange Tallboy weighed in at 2640g including shock, seat clamp, derailleur hanger and bottle cage bolts. Can weigh a RIP9, but not sure what size it is. It's not exactly light though, the Jet9 sounds more like what you want. Haven't got any of them in at the shop I work at yet.

My XXL Leviathan frame weighs 6.1lbs with everything on it. I would think a medium would be in the 4.7 to 5lb range.

The Niner R.I.P.9 frame (medium) weighs 7.3 lbs with rear shock.

Got an opportunity to weigh another large Tallboy, this time in the nude carbon finish, 2280g. That orange paint weighs a lot!

Jet9 is not light.

Mine (old version) size L in white was 2.8+kg
My previous Fisher 292 was lighter.

competitivecyclist.com has accurate weights for some of those. They also stock Ventana El Rey's.
