bill(owner and maker of clifcat) Does do custom builds for anyone. He has them made to what you want and powdercoated to what you want. The Fr and DH frame are long and ride great. He is having mono tubing done for 2008 kinda like Intense. I own a clifcat chump FR and they are amazing bikes...
I have thought about building a very light DH race wheelset. Well I finally took action.

there are a few things, they are optional though.
1. check the brakes if they need to be bled
