I think its because companies are realizing that there are people stupid enough to buy a custom complete as their first bike, and want THE lightest bike possible. Then again it could be because they make a wee bit more profit off of people buying new parts because of the way it breaking not being covered by warranty. Kind of like KHE's policy of bent parts not being covered.
