WHAT THE...???!!!!
If JESUS RIDE...HE MUST HAVE CHOOSE THIS BIKE...!!
That's the hottest Socom I've seen.just finished building this up a few weeks ago.
weighed in at 39.2 but i'd really like to confirm that with a second scale. i've have a ti-spring on it's way and the vented rotors will likely be tossed for non-vented one. those 3 items should get the bike under 38....
I'd like to know what it would weigh with the Boxxer WC. Did you get the different Rotors and the Ti Spring? I have the V2 Hope Brakes, and I'd like to toss the vented rotors and replace it with a regular.shouldnt be the red knob on the top side of the juicy lever???... just curious, because its not the first time I see it...
weight:41lbs
could drop a couple of pounds pretty easy i think, lg1,ti spring front and back, dt compettition spokes, hope pro 2 hubs, a lighter stem.
Flip is down like that so it doesn't break off in a crash.
hes going euro style, right hand controls front brake. Im thinking about making the switch myself.

I have been on quite a few bikes in the past and I can honestly say that the swd is just a really fast bike. It corners better, jumps better, and just floats over everything that I have been on. The steel frame is super quiet and it pretty much will take anything you can throw at it, from huge hucks to high speed dh courses.
I got to spend some hard days on it at Northstar and it handled everything out there with ease.
The frames are handbuilt to your spec, pretty much custom as it gets and the pricepoint is pretty amazing. I don't want to sound like an advertisment, but I really do believe in the bikes and the company.
who copied who?
so what is the lightest dh frame? moorewood? sunn? orange? sunday? socom?
That swd racing is ****ing sweet!!
im sure the socom weighs about the same but i would trust the durability of the orange.
my orange is 38.6 pounds with steel coils in the front and rear, so they can easily be done up 36 and a half pounds.

The Sunn Radical+ Frameset weighs 9.8lbs with a Marzocchi Roco World Cup Shock and Steel Spring.
Right now she weighs 42.5 lbs. I'm going down to the garage to make her as "race" as I can with what's laying around. TBC.....
by the way, it's a proto 2008 Scott Gambler w/ Formula "The One" GM brakes and a 220mm rotor.

the lowest i've gotten my orange is 39. but then i put holes in both my tubless tires:huh: this winter i'm gonna try to get it to 36-37
the page is a bit messed up but look at this orange 224. The swiss made it weight 32 pounds!

Someone has never been into a major city...
standard setup just not on a felt full carbon roadie frame like that.
ohh and that orange is pretty sick but i am still extremely skeptical about running an air shock in the rear of my dh bike. who knows though maybee in a few years when the technology is acctually there i might start considering them.

...my new 'free. Just over 41 pounds. Which is interesting given that the old one was heavier (with '07 66s). Still climbs ok though...

No, the BMX cruiser- twats.
ohh woops someone should have specified, and i guess i can go with you on this one deffinatly a little weird looking.
it also has half a seat:huh:
"Lightest for sure is socom - 8.5 lbs with shock.
Lapierre dh-230 is close at something around 9 (8.8 with air shock)"
Well my DH-230 is just over 42lb and that's with some lighter stuff than the stock build (SDG I beam and alloy trough-axle). There's no way the frame weighs in at 8.8lb. That's just the weight taken off the CycleSuperStore.ie website and it can't be correct. Even the 18.5 kg (approx 40.7 lb) quoted on the Lapierre site for the bike isn't right.
The Socom is significantly lighter and feels it when you ride it. The stock DH230 is a solid construction. That's why Nico has had his on a serious diet. I bet that's more in line with the Socom's 8.8lb! I'm saving for a Socom.
