AndreZA Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I'm sure there is a 7kg one on weight weenies.
AuctionLamb Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 I'm sure there is a 7kg one on weight weenies. but you must be able to ride/race on the thing....
AndreZA Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 then you can get a Cannondale at about 8.5kg of the shelve.
Big JD Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 then you can get a Cannondale at about 8.5kg of the shelve. I think the Scalpel the Vredestein guys used last year was under 8kg's.
Weight Weenie Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 tuned scott spark was around 7,5kg in WW
spano Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 what does the reading on that scale say, cant see??? 8.8kg ??spano2009-02-19 03:20:55
Zaskar Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Yip, 8.8kg, not the lightest in the world, but still impressive if you ask me.
Marius Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 ANything under 9.5kg is light for a DS, mine is like 10.8kg, and that took some effert getting it that light..
