Lol what a funny topic seeing as how I've been enjoying cruising around on my Specialized hardrock lately. Started life as a 24 speed mountain bike. I sunk a couple bills into it converting it to an 8 speed with new cranks, single sprocket, and chain tensioner a couple years ago and now I'm riding it.
Just remember there are frames specific to flatland that have different pitches on the forks to make balancing on the front tire easier.
If I remember correctly they had chromo frames down from 7lb average to 4lbs quite a few years ago. I cant imagine how light they are now. Check out the eastern stuff. All titanium if your feeling spendy. Super light and super strong and eastern was/is a good name.
