Sorry, no scale shot. It's a bit hefty, a shade over 42lb. So agile though.

Really? wheres the weight coming from? Yeah shes no superlight but cant really see any components that stand out as overly heavy. or is my weight judging just way off modern standards Confused

edit: apart from the seat Razz

Well summer tyres will save a bit when winter finally shuffles off. The seat is awful and needs replacing asap. The crankset is now a diablous DH which may have shaved a little off. I guess it's a combination of a lot of slightly hefty bits that add up over the whole bike. Doesn't really bother me though, it doesn't feel heavy when you stamp on the pedals

They work fine for me. I've run them on previous DH bikes as well, I'm 200lb and I've never had a problem.

The v3 is so much more stable and super plush. It's basically my old v2 with what i'd have changed about it, put in place.
