Sorry, forgot you bought one from me....my bad.Acadian said:dude...I bought it from YOU
I just thought you were trying to razz me on the fact that I say "I don't like to run QR seatpost clamp" - which is true for DH/DS bikes...but not on my trail bike
Methinks you'd really rock on a 5 Spot Babs!!I Are Baboon said:Acadain, that is a sweet 5 spot. If I were in the market for a trail bike right now, I'd definitley look into one.
There are a bunch of them around... I remember all the talk when people were working with IH to get the links replaced. Search the lounge and PM people - you might have better luck.MMcG said:Any other Monkeys rippin it up on Hollowpoints like BB is?
Hummm....why does your Spot weigh 2.5lbs less than mine!Acadian said:about 27lbs

I alsp want to get a MAXM MX-5 bar (26mm one)

Humm...the only thing I have done to it since I weight it the last time was change the tires and tubes.Acadian said:you're bike HAS to be lighter than that...
mine might also be heavier...I'll weight it again tonight when i get home.
did you use a digital scale?
My thoughts exactlyMMcG said:wow with that spec list is it hard to imagine the bike being 29.5 pounds.
Okay, now I don't feel so bad. I was talking to Damon and I guess my Sun hubs are heavy compared to Hadley. I do have a pair of King hubs on order so maybe those will lighten up the bike a little!Acadian said:you were right...mine comes in at 29lbs
you're bike can't be more than 27.5 lbs...maybe even less.Snacks said:Okay, now I don't feel so bad. I was talking to Damon and I guess my Sun hubs are heavy compared to Hadley. I do have a pair of King hubs on order so maybe those will lighten up the bike a little!
it IS very very light, i went to pick it up to throw it on the truck and it had already floated into the cab before i could get my mits on it.Acadian said:you're bike can't be more than 27.5 lbs...maybe even less.

Nice new ride, Mark!!!!MMcG said:I think -BB- will approve of this - here is what will replace my Balfa Belair in my stable. The seller is sending it out to me today!
Thats good news for me because I want the Hollowpoint frame when he's done with it.Mackie said:Nice new ride, Mark!!!!
I give it 3 months before you get bored and are buying a new frame :devil: :devil:

Nope, never been there Stosh. I'd like to check it some day though. Actually, between a new kid and the winter, I barely ride at all anymore.....stosh said:Thats good news for me because I want the Hollowpoint frame when he's done with it.
Mackie do you ever ride Mtn Creek?
damn you're so close to Mtn Creek too. I am as well but I've only been there a handful of times.Mackie said:Nope, never been there Stosh. I'd like to check it some day though. Actually, between a new kid and the winter, I barely ride at all anymore.....
Not that far up typically - Blue Mountain is my typical northern limit, although I've been known to go to Ninham or the 909 a couple of times in a season.stosh said:Do you ever come upstate?
909 is further upstate than me or Mtn Creek, Mtn creek is in NJ..... 909 couldn't be closer than MTN creek for you.Mackie said:Not that far up typically - Blue Mountain is my typical northern limit, although I've been known to go to Ninham or the 909 a couple of times in a season.
Whew, I was about to call BS on that weight...Acadian said:you were right...mine comes in at 29lbs
