Not trying to be rude, I do appreciate the info given, but none of those frames can be bought. So if you know any light weight frames I can buy please let me know. Thanks. _________________ MAMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT! HUH!

AFAIK the frame is commercially available. Just contact the owner of Supersonic Systems Karl Durst (karldurst@freenet.de). @nikh: Yes, the seatpost combination is his own development.

	Well there is no other frame i know which is lighter, more solid, more stiff than the new Scott Cr1 team issue....i was waiting for such a frame a long time...there were alot of good ones on my mind but i always found something to criticize. Now i got it ..and its mine...MINE mY PRECIOUS...(diabolic laughter)...

	Man, that in-development seat/post combo looks scary uncomfortable, i dunno about you guys, I don't think I'd go anywhere near that thing...unless it cost about half as much as a AX-lightness
