Why does Merlin say the weight of the SXC fs mtb is 6.2-6.5 lb "including rear swingarm"?! Why would anyone weigh or ride the frame without the swingarm? Isn't that like someone asking you how much you weigh and you say, "155 lb, WITH my hands and feet."
Just wondering, after all it is a $3000 frame. Wait, is that price with or without swingarm?
And please don't read this in a negative tone; I've heard how many readers of this Merlin board can get mighty hasty when it seems someone is attacking their beloved company.
Look, I've even posted my real email; most flakes don't do that especially if it was a flame. Thanks for the constructive answers.
