[seismic]

Yeah, let us have some more pics. Dont let this thread die !

 

[dropmachine]

46 pounds of hill plowing fury. With Atomlab rims now. Ringle hubs are ass.

 

[seismic]

When we had like 3-4 team bikes, I've always wanted one too. It's such a fun bike to ride --as long as you're going 5 MPH or faster -any slower it rode like a D9 tractor.

Here's my contribution: 53 lbs of raw lust.

I hope that weight is wrong, because that would make it weight the same as my BMW.....

 

[sbstianfreeride]

Yeah the built doesnt look heavy at all.

 

[pdawg]

I fail to see the connection between your post and the subject of this thread.

edit: Nice catalog photo, though. Good stuff, them '07 Enduros.

 

[RedOne]

My ride. I don't think 42.3lbs are really "heavy".
The first pic is from last year, in the meanwhile i changed rear rim, saddle, stem, chainguide.

 

[muddy beast]

Heres mine...
about 45lbs, and getting heavier with every upgrade....well except the SDG seat. But things like cromo bars, 4 piston brakes, bigger tires and tubes...it all adds up.

who cares though right, as long as its a sick ride/look .
On my list though are MTX rims with Abbah hubs, DHX 5.0 shock, 888 fork, PC-990 cassette.

 

[Mr.Mike]

Not the best picture, but weighs in around 45 lbs. Saint everything with XT brake levers and XTR rear shifter, Mavic 729 hoops, Maxxis sticky rubber.

Here's my dads' bike except his has different tires,cranks, added pedals of course, and raceface bashguard added instead of 3rd gear-not so heavy at 31.8 lbs: but still Whistler ready

That's pretty light... kinda way off mark considering what this thread is about.

I think the guy ment to type in Pinkbike.

 

[carbuncle]

45.5 pounds of sturdy, stable-handling love.

 

[oly]

this thread makes me miss my old Banshee Scream with shivers and Doubletracks..... 50 lbs of love....

 

[evilbob]

My Demo9...just under 45

 

[diamondratuk]

Here she is in all her glory but you just don't ask a lady how heavy she is you know......... It's kinda rude.

In truth I haven't got round to it yet, but I'm kinda curious.
Never found weight to be a problem. Have found some light weight frames to be flexy and I did'nt like it mind.

 

[MinorThreat]

44 lbs. Have some stupid thorn-proof tubes in right now that must weigh more than the tires. Oh, and my new white Sunline saddle (not shown) has Ti rails

 

[revmonkey]

she's a beaut!

now why aren't you running the inverted RST?

hope you have a good season!

Thank you!! I actually have a brand new inverted still in the box just waiting to come out and play I wanted to give the new R1 a good wringing out first though. Nothing I've run it on yet has warranted that much suspension (plus the white lowers color-coordinate).

 

[Torrendo]

Hi,

My Lapierre, currently 43lbs, no Ti spring anymore and now the pedals are Low Pro mags

 

[ATOMICFIREBALL]

I weighed it about 44.5 pounds.

 

[TGR]

My devinci, weighing in at like 42.7 pounds... (with my "race" seat, aka not the huge one in the pic)

 

[stinkyboy]

44.0 Lbs.

Need to cut the fork down.

 

[Transcend]

 

[McGRP01]

 

[Keewee]

This is my DH bike - 100% cromo and weighs in close enough to 42lbs

 

[BMXman]

lol...some people seem to not be able to read the title of the thread...D

 

[tadrscin]

43 lbs light.

 

[Beef Cake]

Good Hood Mussel... ~45 lbs

Bad Hood Mussel... ~65 lbs

I must have the bad hood !!!!!
Is there a link to there site ????
i'v never heard of them .

 

[MaxDamageDA]

This is my primal bike, its about 62 lbs, lighter than the hood ( i love that one, u had the custom cortina earlier right? :> ) probalby cuz of army itself, its lightweigh, 550g race face cranks :> and no seismic up front lol

And this was my tmx ( btw on saint which is normally impossible to assemble, but everything can be done in magic basement ) If it would be assembled on my parts it proly could have reached 70lbs...
As i really manage to handle my bike, the brooklyn was hmm... strange. Totally different geometry, shiver was too small for it, and overall the bike was riding only in straight lines heh

 

[ZoRo]

The seat on that bike must weigh more than a world cup level road bike...

Those two pictures sums up why I quit the DH scene several years back. The sport just got really stupid. Now, it's all good again. At least until the Karpiel "classics" are re-released.

So you dont like heavy bikes...no problem, get something light...but I still think some of the "old school" DH bikes ride really nicely...and you dont have to replace them once a year. BTW...ever tried a BMW ?

 

[Sandwich]

It's good that what other people do affects you so much. Do you ride on the east coast, or do you go very very big? Maybe he does, maybe that's why he rides what he does.

Just something to think about. When's the next sunday/dw blowjob/featherweight bike thread coming out, anyways?

How? we just built up a new Socom last night for one of our LBS shop monkey's and it was 35lbs on the nose with a coil shock, I cant see how that one can be 20lbs heavier.....

 

[dropmachine]

Did it break yet?

 

[sixsixtysix]

Did it break yet?

LoL, I am waiting for it too... He thought his M3 was too heavy.... I am not a fan of the Socom, but he is a light rider, maybe 130lbs soaking wet... The build wasn't even that crazy, I was thinking it would come to 37-38 but was suprised when we threw it on the scale. I think the wheels will be the downfall, they are Hope hubs laced to DTSwiss 5.1's using 2.0-1.5-2.0 spokes. They look like XC racing wheels but whatever, not my ride

so you're worried about what everyone else thinks. to then destroy your fun.

yea, that makes sense.
