not a waste of time as I learned something from the thread! cool bike. I have a couple older mtb and I love the rides but I have nothing in the S-works weight class and I'd love to get my hands on one. I think my 83 stumpjumper sport weighs 40 lbs. My lightweight is a mongoose around 30. a 23lb vintage mtb. wow!

Schwinn had a Prestige tubed mtb as well right? Paramount MTB had prestige and CF versions similar to specialized? I may be wrong but something to look out for.
