Just over 6 pounds, pretty reasonable i'd imagine, as most steel xc bikes are around the 4.5-5 pound mark.0

It doesn't writes there from what it's made of.
But if it's a steel one the weight is ok but if it's aluminium frame then it's a bit heavy.0 -
No replaceable mech hanger, 2.8kg, it had better be steel0
-
tubes look skinny enough to be steel and the weight sems pretty good for what is meant to be a very tough frame0
-
sorry yeah it is steel, checked out the ns webby.i ride a hardtail0

If you look at the 4th pic you will see that the drop out is replaceble - the stays look a little chunky - unusual if steel, also the box/gusset at the head tube suggests its not a steel frame.0

Hey Will Snow if you buy that frame just don't take the yellow one (it's a bit childish).
I would go for the black one.0 -
