So sort of as a follow on to what frames brands should build but don't how about a "builds that rock but were never intended by the designers". Not talking about upgrading a rear mech or fork here, more along the lines of the lightweight bfe, the Carbon Nomad that everyone loves to hate, or the carbon rush i'm building............

130mm maxle tapered revelation, going 1x10 before the weekend, 70mm stem and 710 bars, wasn't sure it would work till I rode it with the std 120mm fork and the shorter stem and wide bar but it felt great and hoping it will only get better, crossmax st to replace the xl in the next week or so too so should be a 26lb ripper

I think whoever designs the Carreras might be slightly surprised by my carbon forked 1x9 Carrera Kraken.
