Anyone knows Meta 666 frame weight?

I like the meta 666's long travel but concern with its climbing ability. Is it designed to climb as well as the meta 5.5?

I am trying to decide between the meta666 frame, meta5.5 frame or the SC Heckler. Anyway first choice will be between the 2 Commencal metas

Weight will be about the same, or a few grams over, that of the 07 Meta5.5. Say about 7.5 - 7.75lbs. Other than the adjustable head angle it's more or less the same as the Meta 5.5, only with more travel, so it'll climb amazingly well. To ride the bike it feels like a plusher Meta5, but it still feels very stiff and firm when putting the power down. The BB is slightly higher than the 5 too.

I've just finished putting the frames into my shop website, here is a nice big pic of the frame:



Hope that helps.

I am with you all the way on that....

And check out those funky Superteam graphics on the frameset ( though the team green is pretty awesome too )

Green is the new orange! ( or is it the new black? )
