Nice try hater :) Read the post. Those were recent photos after I just installed new cranks, I built and weighted it in october. Just imagine if I switch cranks and got a ti coil! Not bad for a 10" travel bike :love:

How can your Army be 40lbs with an S8 in front?
Turbine cranks, ti spring low oil tubeless tires xtr cassette, no front der and no shifter x4 stem pro taper bars magnesium pedals, ti seat, short post, king/deemax wheelset king headset etc... my bullit came in at 41 without ti spring my rm7 comes in at 38.5. Its called expensive parts and doing the searching. I did a weight kick a year ago and there are several ways to cut weight if your serious and not compromise strength.

a new seat is the best bet for me to lower weight on my bike, everything else is light enough, i got my stink at sub 40

When built, my Nuke was in the low 50s...I think 52 or so. I'm hoping to bring it down to 45lbs by some miracle this year.

that's going to be a tall order...I'm thinking 47lbs. is about the lightest you can go without snapping parts all over the place....but let me know how it turns out. I should have never sold mine.....D

... My Demo 8 is roughly 43lbs right now with a Marz 888RC and a Ti coil Swinger 4-way, but that's gonna change this spring. :D

The fork is gonna stay cause it's soooo smooth, but the Swinger is out and a DHX 5.0 is in, plus some more water-jet work on my MRP System 3. That along with a bunch of other cool stuff. I'll post pics around April when it's done.

It's gonna be pimp. :blah:
