It's about time Cannondale made a bike just for me.
Hard tail / Solid Black / I guess I'll go with disk brakes it is 2007.

Under 20.9 pounds,before modifications. The thing is light without sacrificing stiffness AT ALL.
Some of the first modifications, nothing here sacrificed rideabilty for the sake of grams, these were just freeBEEs for the taking.
Grips -80 grams
Switched to a Maxxis crossmark (570grams)front tire with sealant (30 grams) (original tire was 700grams) -100 grams
removed rim strips -40 grams
added pedals +200 grams
removed odds and ends -25 grams
Now if I could just figure out how to remove those reflective stickers off the rims.

I've got one more part on the way, a Easton EC90 Carbon seatpost 31.6 x 400 supposed to be 80grams lighter.
I also might switch to titanium rotor bolts and a rear XTR Cassette.
