i don't think you have enough RaceFace on that bike... 
So does it pedal good? And did you obtain your 30 lb. goal?

If i hadnt cut my raceface riser down to 24" for jibbing i'd have that on too.
The test bike i was on pedaled fine. Need to dial the SPV bandaid in to my weight. So far ive ridden this bike 3'.....
Havnt weighed it yet. I doubt it will be 30. Im hoping for sub 35 as a start.
Next week lets plan a ride day....SST loop?

is that a 20mm up front?
That's a rad lookin bike it's one that everytime you look at you never get sick of it and each time you see it you still see something you didn't before.
Nice ride!

sweet mine's still lighter hehe. Really i'd like to get under 30 myself but unless i get a true XC bike i'll probably never do it.oly said:
Just pick a day for SST and we'll post it, try to get some other monkies out for the loop.
I have time to ride tomorrow.... I get off work at 3:30 too......... amy and I were talking tiger...but being friday traffic might suck. SST would be a good use of time......Skookum said:
or TAPE.......
I just went to tape a few weeks ago for the first time and had a blast. I have to get my DH rig ready for a wet Whistler and tend to my yard. I was gone for 2 weeks and the grass has a bad habbit of growing....dammit! :mumble:
Nice ride Oly!!
you were asking me about my 5-spot...well I just weighed her and she's approx 29lbs. not bad considering I have some pretty sturdy parts!!

Just took the maiden voyage. It was good. Nice to have my own lightish trail bike.
BTW< i weighed the stock lithium 5.0 that i was riding last week. Its 30lbs! So there is hope as the parts are pretty different, mainly lighter wheels, tires, and fork. Also carbon lever hayes.
