Flowta Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Any idea chaps on how to put her on a diet now that you've seen a pic? Thats why I was asking about the Crossmarks yesterday. Ditch the suspension fork and put the On-one carbon fork (26" version) on there as well as 29er front wheel. aka 69er aka 96er aka 55er. Also as everyone else says, crankset, wheels, cassette,...
_Daemon_ Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Daemon it was your pics that inspired me to go On One! What did yours end up weighing? Aah cool Just over 12kg'sShould be just over 11kg's end of the month
knersis Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Remove the front wheel and wheelie. knersis2009-06-09 05:50:55
_Daemon_ Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Any tips you wanna share with me Daemon Well I am swapping to a 2x9 setup with a middleburn crankset, and then a road front mech for the 2x9 setup, and rebuilding the on-one wheels with Velocity blunts rims, DT swiss comp spokes and the planet-x hubs. This is a dream build, but pick a couple of those parts and the weight should come down nicely : On One Scandal 18" 29er frame 1609Crankbrothers Cobalt Ti 58DT Swiss XCM 1650Shimano XT 29er wheelset 1810NoTubes The Raven 470NoTubes The Crow 450Stans liquid x 2 300DIY tubeless rim strips 150KCNC skewers 46Ergon GX1 136.4KCNC SC flat bar 116Thomson X2 90mm stem 139On One Crinkel cut spacers 12SRAM XO twist shifters 195Avid Juicy Ultimate 345 SRAM X9 165SRAM X0 rear mech mod kcnc 178SRAM Hollow-pin 297KCNC cassette 163Tune SpeedNeedle 98.8KCNC sc pro light seatpost 178Misc Carbon cages x2 46Crankbrothers eggb 2ti 218Crank Brothers Cobalt Ti 180Middleburn RS8 DUO complete 522KCNC bolt clamp 14General Grease 200XT Shifter cables 55 TOTAL weight 9801.2

MintSauce Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 After all the pics of 29ers that bike looks so weird with the small hoops
levett Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 My Scandal 29'er (M) weighs in at exactly the same as your 26'er and I'm looking to shave a few hundred grams off with an XTR Rear Derailleur and an XTR Cassette.I think mine will end up, in final configuration at approx. 11.5kg (wheels and tyres on a 29'er accound for about 3kg!)
