Comes to 10.3kg of pure XC pleasure. I'll post my other XC bike and main road bike soon.

What a beaut Azonic!

 

One question though - is it the angle that of the photo' date=' or is your seat tilted quite far back?

If its not the photo - how on earth do you ride like that [img']https://assets.bikehub.co.za/legacy_images/smilies/smiley29.gif[/img]smiley17.gif

 

Nope, you are correct. When that picture was taken my saddle was tilted back - that was just after I built it. The saddle has since been lowered a little and centered.

 

Here's my other XC baby:

1999 Trek 8900 SL (resprayed - Eh, it still look good and works great)

1999 Rock Shox Judy SL tuned with Englund Total Air cartridges (lighter than a SID)

SRAM X9 jockey and shifters

KCNC scandium seatpost (155g)

American Classic wheels

Nokon Cables

PRO carbon bar

Titanium front rotor

Titanium bolts here and there

 

 

This bike is plenty light. I will be racing it at Karoo 2 Coast, but only with a carbon rigid fork. Hoping for a decent time, not as fit as I was a year ago.

My new/upgraded baby. Full carbon frame (I had Raleigh RC6000) and QRings. I just rode a 50km loop to top of helshoogte and back and my avg speed was 2km faster than previous best. I'm in love smiley9.gif
