Advice on climbing frame
Moderator: robbosmans
Surprised no one mentioned the Ax Lightness Vial Evo Ultra. I wonder what its weight is now though, heard there was a weight increase a while back. They seemed ashamed of it; its touted as a light frame but the website declined to mention the frameset weight at all

Some great suggestions offered. Since you’re looking for something special and light, I would look at the following:
1. Sarto Seta
2. Sarto Asola
3. WR Compositi Valcava Alpha
4. Crumpton T5 Superlight
5. Colnago V3RS

If Bertoletti's Ti frames are indication of the carbon, it will be a great option.
This is a great option, but then I'm slightly biasedrlanger wrote:The Chapter 2 Huru is a great bike and incredibly light.
Got a chance to test ride one earlier this year and was pretty smitten.
Actually rode all of C2's offerings and the Huru was by far my favorite if the bunch.

just reading up on them
Two already mentioned:
Canyon Ultimate CF Evo and Facotr 02 VAM. Both incredibly good frames and perfect for a super light, but high performing climbing build.
I've also heard that Festka's quality control is pretty poor and was the main reason I didn't go that way when purchasing mine. I went with FiftyOne based in Ireland. Love their frames. Not the lightest at 890g for the frame, but built up with Enve 3.4's, Enve finishing kit (incl aero road bars) and eTap it weighs in at 6.7kg which was fine for me.
