So this is how much lighter than your KM? When I saw that you had bought this frame, it got me jonesing for a new rig. I haven't used my KM much this year because it's just so heavy (32lbs! with a marzocchi MX and exiwolfs. oink), so I've started considering the idea of trying to drop 6 or 7 lbs.
Tires are not that hard to find at all - now variety of tires to choose from that's a little different compared to 26" tires, but that's slowly changing too as more companies are beginning to offer some - Panaracer, More from Kenda, I guess Geax is getting into the game etc.
Drevil - standover is good, a little more room than the KM.
The bike feels more balanced than the Karate Monkey. First ride was a good one. I need to tweek a few things, but overall it was a really fun maiden voyage on her. Mary Bars need adjusting, and maybe a slightly shorter stem. But overall - thumbs up.
