And i wouldn't get a WTP frame. If i had to pick another frame that wasnt the one i had right now (Solid, you probly know...) I would get a T1 Garret Byrnes(and have them not weld on those cs grind plate things.) or Take Ivy.

'heavy' by today's standards is still pretty light compared to the bikes from the 90s or just a couple years ago. I think with nice parts, even without getting any titanium or super light stuff, a bike would add up to like 25lb.
