Jason Posted September 14, 2006 Share TitusTi, I was thinking the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapkas Posted September 14, 2006 Share I think Scott is going too far. I saw the prototype at the Argus Expo and would SERIOUSLY not feel comfortable riding on a bike that light! Imagine you go through a pothole or hit a big rock!!! It will snap in half like a chopstick!! I like trusting my equipment while racing, decending & sprinting. My Trek weighs in at about 7.2 and i am more than happy with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitusTi Posted September 14, 2006 Share Yeah Grapkas, agreed about the one at the Argus Expo, the problem with this new one is, all these are good solid performance components, all of it built up intelligently to an an insanely light package! I think they're just trying to upset the UCI and their sometimes silly laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatcyclist Posted September 14, 2006 Share I wouldn't even trust many of the currently super light frames (maybe with the exception of Litespeed).. Being a big boy means needing strong equipment. Hence riding a 9k Litespeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted September 14, 2006 Share besides, that Scott looks Ug!!! and it's only going to make you 19seconds faster over a flat 40km TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapkas Posted September 14, 2006 Share Exactly!! The main thing is feeling safe and trusting your equipment! When you race you can't hold back and i am sure i am going to be sh*t scared of going over a peble and breaking the fork half the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted September 14, 2006 Share 8kg for me is fine, I'm not going to waist any money trying to make it lighter, it'll be silly imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted September 14, 2006 Share Correct one needs to feel safe thats why the Scott carbon is the strongest and lightest around (test done by EFBe ) EFBe is the leading test laboratory for bike component quality and safety. Frames and components with our testing seals are always reliable, even when subject to extreme stress. With more than a decade of experience in testing services and test machine development, EFBe has continuously set and improved international standards http://www.efbe.de/testergebnisse/rennwiege/enindex.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatcyclist Posted September 14, 2006 Share It don't give me that warm & fuzzy feeling that titanium does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted September 14, 2006 Share <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Oh ball man, why are they the biggest??? Cuz ppl pay them a crap load of money to give BS results. If those results are not verified by at least 5 other in depended Labs/Universities I have no reason to trust them. We talking billions of $$$ HERE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
