Well, I thought that it would be better to have a bit more grams around the centre of the bike and keep the front and back relatively lighter to make control, spins, overall riding easier..
In ruff Canadian Dollars: -Frame: $600 -Fork: $1000 -Wheels: $1000 -Drivetrain: $600 -Brakes?? (i guess at least $400) -Tire, t00b, post, saddle, bar, stem, pedals, headset, grips: $100+10+40+30+60+70+120+40+20 --> $490
A total of a whoopin' four thousand. [$4090]
That's way too much for a hardtail bike.... hahaha
