Just thought I should put this out there

The delta 7 sports Arantix. Costs almost $12,000.

I think it looks like a cheeze grater. Frame weighs about 2 pounds!

Image is kinda big…

Yeah, something about a pre-production model, still for a 7k frame that shouldn't happen.

At the past interbike, there were a bunch that broke. I think a few pictures are floating around.

If I were to throw away cash on a stock weight weenie bike, I would go for the Cannondale Flash instead. 16.5 lb hardtail.

Frame weighs about 2 pounds!

If you want to go for the WW crown, start with a Scott Scale frame. Thats a bit lighter (a lot if your a WW).
