Finally got the F-Bomb finished. The color is raw and it truly is "raw". Out of heat treat and slightly cleaned up. No paint, no polish, no nuthin'. The final weight came to 38.75 lbs with a non weight weenie build. It is about 2 lbs less than my Highline which is impressive. Looking forward to the first ride.
