Just finished building today at Peak Bikes in Douglaston, NY. Total weight is 29 lbs., 15 ozs. I actually had it at 29 lbs., 11 ozs., without Stans.
2013 Santa Cruz V10 Carbon frame.
2013 Boxxer World Cup fork.
Easton Havoc UST 157mm, Schwalbe Fat Albert's 2.4 UST.
Cane Creek Double Barrel Air rear shock.
Sram XO 10 speed shifter.
Avid XO Trail brakes 203mm rotors.
Sram XO Type 2 rear der.
Sram Red cassette.
Raceface SixC cranks, Raceface 36 tooth chainring.
Nukeproof Neutron Mag/Ti pedals.
cSixx carbon chainguide.
Chris King bottom bracket, Chris King 1.5 Headset.
Enve carbon DH bars.
Point One Racing Direct Mount stem.
Deity Classic lock-on grips, Deity end caps.
WTB Devo saddle titanium rails.
Thompson Masterpiece seatpost. Thompson seat collar.

I probably could have shaved off a couple more grams with ti bolts, smaller rear rotor, etc.
But that's just getting a bit carried away I think.
Sorry for the crappy pics, but after this build, I can't afford a nice camera...lol.
By the way, the front tire is NOT touching the ground, and the pics aren't altered or faked in any way.
Can't wait til the lifts at Plattekill open, and in August...Whistler awaits!
Way too cold to even test ride here in NY. (11 degrees)

Happy Trails!
Fredro

havent ridden the v10 yet, but i have a ccdb air on my nomad and its amazing.
light, plush, so tuneable, and great customer service. the lounge is an amazing place for ccdb riders to exchange info and discuss settings, issues, etc.
the actual techs from cane creek also chime in on the discussions as well.
what suspension company does that?
worth the money!

Do you think it will manage to absorbe rock gardens?

Really nic,e but why not a Chris King Inset 4? Would give you more to move the stanchions higher/lower, and save some weight too, and would look cleaner

I actually like the look of the external headset cups better actually. More for aesthetics to be honest, and stack height is fine.

Cool, anyway, how does it ride, or still no time to ride it? Frame is medium?

Impressive, but undermined by tyre choice.

tire choice is questionable...agreed.
but i figured id try it. worse case scenario, i dont like em, i swap em out for meatier tires, then the bike is 31 lbs.
still super light. not the end of the world.
