 It would look way better painted Monster Green with some rainbox strips mixed in.

With regards to weigth, I am sure, as on his Iron Horse, he has a few special goodies to bring the weight down around the mid 30's (36 - 37lbs).

Only time will tell.

 have you noticed that since he left iron horse their bieks have got worse, they should have just kept the bikes like they were before, they were gnarly, the new world cup one is nice but the others are poor compared to last years and the year before
  • 1 0
 they got worse because Dave Weagle (of DW Linkage fame) decided not to relicense the DW to IronHorse for the '10 line ups. i think that was a contributing factor for Sam leaving IH as well

 yea good point i only found that out after i wrote the comment i still like the ih bikes but they were soo much better before

 thats kool needs more green tho Smile

 It was a hard day for photogs... the weather was crap and everything that was taken came out like this... the only way to have more green would be to photoshop it in.

 Sam Hill is SPECIALIZED

 i wonder how much money specialized paid to bring him over or if his contract ran out with iron horse, anyways if this is his new bike expect a price hike from specialized

 So its true! Hope he continue cracking the top!

 yea i know dude but most of these are darkened or watermarked for a reason. They're less appealing for people to rip them to other sites/pages.

 weigh*
  • 4 2
 NO, im pretty sure the bike is way lighter then a regular specialized demo, he's one of the top pros. light components and theres going to be lots of mods to the frame that you can't always see. but im stoked to see him on a specialized!!!
  • 1 0
 They only way 43 lbs with stock parts on. I only have a few lighter parts than stock on my demo and its already just under 40 lbs
  • 0 0
 they arnt that heavy. my demo weighs in at about 38lb
