I'm building up my first long travel bike, and I'd like a little input from the guys that've been at it for a while. I'm trying to build it on the lighter side, I've always wanted to gram count (not really sure why) so I'd like to aim for the 38-39 lb range...
Anyways, here are my idea's so far. Any tips would help!
Thanks in advance.
Turner DHR frame (05)
07 Boxxer Race
Sun or E.13 stem
Easton EA70 bars
SDG BelAir ST saddle/post
721's laced to a Hadley rear and Hope Pro II front hub
High Roller 2.35" tires (single ply)
x.9 rear shifter w/x.0 med cage rear derailleur
Ultegra cassette
MRP G2 or E.13 LG1 guide
Gravity Light or Shimano XT cranks w/E.13 guide ring
ODI lock on grips
Hope Mono 6, Juicy 7, Magura Louise FR, or Shimano Saint brakes
Wellgo MG1 pedals
Sun or Chris King reducer headset
I'm quite light at 140ish lbs, and ride a little of everything though more XC type trails will be handled on my Rail. I'll be putting on a Ti spring to help reduce the weight a bit.
Any other choices would be appreciated as well!
