What kinda seat is that? Road?

This has been my 4X whammy for the last couple of seasons, truly a fun bike to ride! Never weighed in on this one, I just ride it. I would guess low 30s though? Although the wheels and fork certainly aren't the lightest out there, they are awfully non-flexy for a big guy like me. I've got an '08 Yeti 4X on the way for this season. Hey, gotta match the DH bike, right?








PS - she's for sale if anyone's interested :spam:

if i buy a short travel fun bike in the future it will be an ndiza or yeti probably, is the ndiza built tough enough for jumping and such?
 
You must go to Clemson with all the orange on that bike!

I say we add some blue to it, put a UF symbol on the head tube, paint some gator heads on the frame and put on some swamp things:lighten:

Actually, thats a real nice naadizzzzyyy - you gonna race at Dark mtn?

I can play now! 07 Tazer w/ pushed vanilla coil and argyle 302. Soon to be replaced by a 36. Shes a little portly but Ill get her lighter one of these days. 34lbs....
Lighter now...
Changed the fork to a 32 Talas
Stem - Thomson x4
Cassette - Dura Ace
Seat - SDG I-Fly
Tires - Kenda Small Block 8
Tubes - Maxxis flyweights

All of these changes made for a weight savings of 2.5 lbs. She's sittin' pretty at 31.5 lbs. and will be lighter once my new cranks arrive. A new wheelset is in the cards too, but I'm not sure which route I'm gonna go.

Ooh, I got one.





What do you guys recommend for a new wheelset? I don't have the money for I9's but I can get a deal on Mavics and Eastons. I was thinking Havoc AM. Anybody have experience with these?

Here is my dual slalom/4x/dj/urban/cruiser/park bike, an older p1. I painted it myself with spray paint. I just got a new set of Shimano Saint brakes, woo! I need to get a new rear wheel badly, but that's about all that I plan on replacing anytime soon.

Not ideal for some courses but it is fast as hell weighting a drop under 25lb. I'm looking for CrossMax XL's which would make this my dream bike.
