my pike rides super plush at 95, i would love to have it at 80, it all depends on the rider and the fork. i really like it, personally I would like a teency bit more travel, but im used to 8" bikes. if it were mine, Id maybe change a few small things, seeing as you have some really weight conscious parts but some heavier things (which you probably have a perfectly good reason for.)

to lighten it up... Cranks- no suggestions sorry Tires- table tops or Krads or if your don't mind a skinny tires ts1000 or kenda kiniptions rims 721's will lighten the load tubes? stem: thomson, hope dh, or easton vice. Seat and post to a pivotal set up, such a light set up im running a Macneil OS post and a SL seat and its incredibly light hope that gives you a few ideas

if u want lighter
Stem: thompson, large (qc company kempter has it), thats about it that is not os
seat: something smaller
Seat Post: Thompson
Cranks: Gusset has a rly nice pair of light ass ones, that or the khe hindenburg
pedals: dmr's are rly light
rear hub: hope
Rims: 721
Tires: Shwalbe
chain: Hollow pin
u could probably loose a couple more grams here and there but not worth it

Wait one sec ur proof is not a 360!!!!! its a 300...

wait... is your bike really 27.5 lbs? cause all my parts are either the same or lighter (minus handlebar and sprocket), so mine must be like 25-26 lbs...i have to weight it soon

If I may suggest, don't get the MacNeil setup. Get an SDG I-beam combo and cut the 14" post. They have DJ-seats (or if you're a serious weight weenie, a roadie seat out of carbon). If you're going for an Easton stem (I would recommend a Thomson 4X though) the Havoc is you thing. It's the AM/FR stem.
