I just ordered my hardtail bike at backyard.
The total price is CHF 2′495 including XT PD-M 770. Their price is CHF 149, he gave it for CHF 100. That was ok for me, even if you got the pedals for less.
I decided to choose Richtey WCS for an additional CHF 100 and kept the standard saddle for no surcharge.
I choose the color grey anodised (in german: eloxiert). That means the frame is not painted with a color but chemically changed. It means no additional weight for the color (we speak about ~400g).
I’ll need some new shoes as well. I’n not sure I’ll buy them there unless they give me a discount…
[Update: backyard just called me yesterday. Grey is sold out and will take much longer to deliver. So I have the choice to wait or to switch to another color. It will be black anodised then...]
