I think I weighed mine when I got it but I forget.
Looking to get another one possibly......depends on this number
Thanks

in stones please if you don't mindabout 8 and a half Courics.
I think the Demo 8 is around .82 stonesin stones please if you don't mind
Nah, that's like 14lbs.I think the Demo 8 is around .82 stones
LOL, that South Park last night was funny.about 8 and a half Courics.
I just went and watched it....truly amazing.LOL, that South Park last night was funny.
This is part of the equation that I will put into the compuwootron in order to get the appropriate result.so, that's a no-go on the Highline then?
Gotta factor in an ugly coefficient.....This is part of the equation that I will put into the compuwootron in order to get the appropriate result.
Hey what are you sayin!!??Gotta factor in an ugly coefficient.....
Don't you drive an orange Honda element?Gotta factor in an ugly coefficient.....

Just trying to find out which is lighter and if it's enough of a difference to matter either way.
so figure the difference is minimal, maybe a half pound?Jeremy R said:They are right around 10.5
I've got a few days on the newer design of the highline. I'm really digging it. It's very well balanced at 7 and 7 with a single crown fork. Jumps well, pedals well enough and is really stiff. The new rear end is burly.so figure the difference is minimal, maybe a half pound?
have you been riding a HL, where does it differ from your demo?
Not sure if this helps but as a point of reference, my D7 w/ 66 is wayyy slacker than tuadog's Uzzi w/ 66. Same headset setup too on both bikes. We swapped rigs for a lap at the SST flowpark on Saturday, and getting on the Uzzi was like switching to a twitchy XC bike in comparison. Cornering/steering was wayyy quicker/more flicky on the Uzzi, but the Demo felt much more stable and like a big safety blanket to me on all the jumps. I'd imagine the HL is more like your Uzzi...It makes sense to get the D7 because I own 3 other spec bikes so switching wheels etc is easy if I break something on one of them. My biggest concern with the demo is that it will be too slack and/or pedal like ass on climbs. I'm going to borrow one in the next few days here and give it a go.
so yeah.....you know I've been riding an uzziNot sure if this helps but as a point of reference, my D7 w/ 66 is wayyy slacker than tuadog's Uzzi w/ 66. Same headset setup too on both bikes.

Ah, gotcha. I forgot to mention there was an HL out there the same day, and he seemed to think the Uzzi and it had similar rides. But again, that was the older HL. If you've ridden the new HL, never mind. I can't imagine the d7 and d8 feel that different. Pedaling uphill isn't fun on the d7 by any means, but it's adequate. I've cleaned puke hill on it and took it on some long shuttles with significant climbing the other day.It's slacker, lower and rides more plush. Right now the only reason I can think the keep the uzzi is that it pedals and climbs great. But for a 38+lb freeride bike, climbing isn't the priority. As long as it's adequate, it'll do.
That just rules!!!!!
Yeah I'll check the BB this weekend for ya, it's all boxed up right now going back to Utah tomorrow a.m.You ride yours in the steep or slack setting?
Feel like getting a bottom bracket measurement for me?
Yeah If I get the demo, it will definitely be with a 1 1/8 steerer fork and zero stack headset.Yeah the demo7 is supposed to have a 65* HT with the Totem (axle to crown on the totem and 66 are both 565). That's a little too slack for me, I like how my SX Trail was with 66.5*. Not to mention 66's don't sag much so that will slacken out your HT a bit more too. This being so, I opted to run the E.13 Zero stack cups and Cane Creek IS bearings to drop the front end a tad. Should work out nice. Very light too. Just an idea to kick around.
2009 trend will be about tall BB height.Yeah If I get the demo, it will definitely be with a 1 1/8 steerer fork and zero stack headset.
My only question at this point is just how much that's going to drop it. I'd like to leave it in the slack setting to keep the bb low.
I punch 2009 in the pussy.2009 trend will be about tall BB height.
AHAHA, nice. Just watched the episode last night.
I was thinking the samewow, I'm surprised that going from small to large is a full pound. Not like it makes any difference, you need whatever size you need, but still interesting.
havent the 08's got the magnesium link, meaning a drop in weight. ok not a pound, but maybe somewow, I'm surprised that going from small to large is a full pound. Not like it makes any difference, you need whatever size you need, but still interesting.
