Not at all, the frames is totally deprecated, showing the lightest the scale 2005 at 970 gr.But will be good to look for forksSurely weight weenies is the place which will hold all the information you seek.
It won’t simply be a case of throwing lots of money at it. Custom made / modified parts will need to be used so you either need people capable of such or be handy at things yourself.
Unless you are looking to ride a crazy World Cup DH track any competent rider should be able to tip toe their way through a trail without breaking anything. Having to do it within a set time would add more of a realistic challenge.As an add on to the concept of extremely light bicycle builds, I think that to claim the record, the bike should be required to complete one lap on an agreed upon course without anything breaking. All potential record holders would ride the same course. Or do most people think that being rideable isn't a factor for this particular record?
