My Scott Scale

I decided I wanted a new XC hardtail, and to try these weird massive wheel things.

It's a Scale 960, switched to 1x10 and with a Reba replacing the 30 that was one there as stock, shown here with the highly acclaimed mud upgrade. Goal for this is to get it under 10kg (could be tricky, it's about 11.5 at the moment), and race it next year. It's very strange riding a hardtail again, but quite good fun.

Obviously it's down to personal preference but i've got ESI chunky grips on my whippet and i've never found them lacking in comfort, quite the opposite. It's a bonus that they weigh slightly less than naff all too! Might be worth a think?
Wheels, tyres and carbon is what you need to focus on

Good advice and why I don't do very light tyres.
First, the new picture:
Still not got round to changing the wheels (next month is my intention), but I have been changing a fair few bits. Bar, stem, seatpost, saddle, cranks, pedals, plus some other little bits.
Changes with weights which I bothered to take:
Fairly happy with having dropped almost 1kg so far. Pretty much everything has cost well below £1/g. Unfortunately, when moving house I managed to lose my scales, so full weights will have to wait until I either buy new ones or get round to stripping and weighing every part...

At that price I can't imagine it being an issue if you have to replace it every so often!

I need to update this thread. The bike is now below 10kg, and probably nearing completion unless I want to change the frame. The next project will be a full sus XC bike, which will hopefully get somewhere near the same weight using even more carbon bits.
