Well, I'm a little excited about the new treadlie so here is a pic (pardon the mucho quality digital cam)
Spec
Merida Magnesium Elite frame (1200gr )
Fox Float80RLC
Full 2002 XTR groupset
Shimano 959 pedals
Richey WCS stem
Easton EC90 flat bars
Thomson post
Selle Italia SLR saddle
DT Hugi240 Hubs
Mavic 517's
DT 15/17 Revolutions w/ alloy nipples
Maxxis Flylight Tire / tubes / rimstrips
It's about 9-9.5kg according to the precise bathroom scales
I love it, it climbs so well. It's an easy 4-5 gears higher on the same hills than my old bike. On descents its just so easy to loft it over obstacles on track. It's just awesome
I was having concerns about building such a light bike, but thus far its been sensational!
FTF Winter Series here we come!
