the BMC would be my choice right now if I'd start from scratch, what a terrific looking frame, so nice.

I don't imagine there are too many more options under 1kg, but there are plenty of others close to it.

I think the BH Ultimate has a claimed weight pretty close to 1kg, as does the FRM ANAKIN SLK.

The Intense Hard Eddie is claimed to weigh close to 1kg but I've got no idea if that includes their interchangeable dropouts or not.

The 'stock' Sarto AMPEZZO is over 1kg but maybe a 'full custom' could be made lighter?

I imagine Crumpton could also make something in the weight range you're after too.
