Brian Fantana Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Yup, the Gambler aint no Kate Moss... In the interest of DH bikes, I'll post some details of mine (mostly cos it's the only one of my bikes I've ever weighed , haha) Morewood Makulu (Large custom built frame)Last weighed in at 17.1kg(that was with light tyres. Now running heavy...BUT it has had some upgrades since, like Ti spring, Hope integrated stem etc).Retail... approx 60k Therefore approx R3530/kg. Hard to tell if that's good/bad value for money You weighed your bike???
