surpassable
Able to exceed
Surpassable means capable of being exceeded or outdone.
If a record is surpassable, someone can eventually beat it.
The word usually appears in negative constructions—unsurpassable quality, a feat not easily surpassable—where the point is to emphasize how difficult or impossible exceeding something would be.
