Unreal. Too-funking-unreal

That bike must have next to no strength to it at that weight.

my bike may be a tank compared to it,but it's got strong parts on it.

Harry, dont lie. It's impossible for a dj that is 20 lbs. My bmx is 22 lbs and look the stuff. Your frame is like 2x heavy than a bmx and the tire are 2x heavy too.

Why you lie haha
the average BMX frame is 2.4 pounds? because that frame only weighs 4.8. My steel 26" weighs 5.3. 26" frames aren't all that much heavier than BMX's anymore bro. And here's a 21.8 pound 26" too. they can get pretty damn light

those forks weigh 3.9lbs Smile

bars and stem combined weigh under 400grams Big Grin its easy.

all ive got left to do to it is two new light innertubes and a differnt front tyre and ill will be around the 22lb mark, maybe sneak under, which would be sooo sick Big Grin

and then im saving up ready for febuary when my new frame and forks are available, sub 23lb full sus coming this way Big Grin Big Grin
