Oi, she's a looker! It **would** be nice to have a full review though…
Sub-30# in 6″ travel bikes is possible on a budget [LOL] with the right frame,
air-sprung suspension at both ends, lighter wheels, tubeless, etc. Likely not
a stock bike out of your LBS, but if you're okay with a DIY build it can be
done. If you already have a bunch of parts+fork+wheels you're happy with,
almost everything can be swapped to a new frame. I'm going from a Titus El
Guapo to something else this year, with a sub-30# goal in my sights. The only
thing that might not switch over easily is the seatpost, but it depends on the
new frame.
