Is there any particular area where the bulk of the weight is being dropped from or is it just losing a bit from all over?dw said:Thats a stock 07 Sunday frame, the frame is 0.9 lbs lighter than the 05 / 06 factory, so in the 9s. Helmet looks dope!

is there any weight savings when comparing the 07 links vs pre-07?
RaID said:What are the benefits of the new links besides "solving" the pin problem?
Does it change the ride characteristics at all?
dw said:lighter, stronger, easier assembly, less parts, fits more shocks, looks cooler, uhmmm... yeah, thats it.
Ride characteristics are unchanged.

so how much dose this years factory weigh? or are they the same frame for the complete bikes as well as the frameset?dw said:Thats a stock 07 Sunday frame, the frame is 0.9 lbs lighter than the 05 / 06 factory, so in the 9s. Helmet looks dope!
