Wyatt Earp Posted January 26, 2012 Share Here is a nice and light 29'er which can be ridden hard.With lots of sealant, in the wheels she is at 8.1 kg's.There is even more weight to be lost. Edited January 26, 2012 by Dangle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted January 26, 2012 Share Very, very nice I would love too see what those spokes look like when the wheels are turning. Edited January 26, 2012 by Caerus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted January 26, 2012 Share How much does that fork weigh? ie, what would it weigh with a "real" fork? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palaeodom Posted January 26, 2012 Share Seriously light and a sweet toy, but man it looks like an uncomfortable ride - hard head and tail. Is it just me or does that fork not have a taprered steerer? looks a little wierd Edited January 26, 2012 by Palaeodom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andretraut Posted January 26, 2012 Share Maybe 1.2kg heavier (as pictured) but with proper front suspension. With Renegade S-Works tyres,the weight is down to about 9kg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andretraut Posted January 26, 2012 Share Ek glo nie ek sal ooit groot genoeg word nie Hey Spinnekop en BigBen, julle hoef nie groot te wees om so 'n bike te ry nie, daar is kleiner sizes beskikbaar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyatt Earp Posted January 26, 2012 Share How much does that fork weigh? ie, what would it weigh with a "real" fork? Bike was 9.2 kg's with supplied fork.The Niner fork weighs 480 grams.It's not the tapered steerer version.The renegades will drop the bike way below 8There is talk of 29'er tubbies on the way.

Hairy Posted January 26, 2012 Share My Stumpy just need another 2kg to get there!!!! mmmmm.....now what to saw off?.... Don't saw off ... rather drill holes in the frame and components. The bike will also make a great whistling wind noise when riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombeej Posted January 26, 2012 Share Anton, beautifully built bike. But you always post pics of the unattainable the ferrari's of our world. Must I start calling you Clark/Hammond/May? I've been told of your attention to detail. My local bike builder's perfectionism makes him line up the branding of the tyre and wheel logo's perfectly so that if you use a ruler to test if they're perfectly aligned, you'll find that it's true. I see that you don't really do the same. Then again, I hear your builds are super. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And here you assuming that the tyre manufacturers have there branding spot on through various batches to measure alignment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
