ja, white amc wheels is on the wishlist (but not possible for a verrry long time) Post is 156g, losing the small ring doesn't save that much weight hey. the eggbeaters only saved me about 70g over my old rubbish pedals, but they are SOOO much nicer!

Oh, and I have no idea how much my bike weighs. I'm guessing give or take a few kilos more than Weight Weenie's smiley2.gif

Lekker and light for that frame as well' date=' really looks better than I though it would !

 

?

 

Some white AMC wheels would look good with a white saddle and the new XO/X9 in white accents?;)

 

?

 

The Eggbeaters should also be lightish as well as the 2 rings on the crankset, post is probly like 170g as well.?

So I broke my old frame' date=' wore out a chainring, tyres and pedals and needed a new seatpost for the frame. This is what I ended up with:

It weighs 10.3kg at the moment... not bad for an aluminium bike with a reba fork!

This look quick! Nice work!

I have been looking for a dual suspention for some time now but being on a tight budget they are really hard to come by. BUT today i got this beauty of a frame for a really good price and immediately built her when i got home. What an awesome ride!smiley17.gif

 

Not one of the lightest builds but im running XO twisters with X-9 RD, Hayes Stroker disc brakes, modified LX crank, Deore FD, WTB Speeddisc wheels on Kenda SmallBlock 8's (tubeless) Reba Race with remote lockout and full Ritchey Pro cockpit.
