The SX frame only has 4" of travel, so a lowered Revelation is just fine.

it has a reba :-)

flag seraph (Aug 16, 2009 at 17:36)
Ah, so it is. Regardless it's just enough travel for the SX frame. I had a Reba at 100mm on my Blur 4X for a while, quite a nice light fork.

How much does your bike weigh?

If I could take a shot in the dark, I'd say 31lb (give or take a half pound).

About 30lb with other der. crankset and shifter (X.o, new style saint and white X.9)

flag isaacsx (Oct 9, 2009 at 12:48)
by stripping i assume taking all the padding out of it? and running the plate that mounts to the rails? how much weight did you save? i have a couple of carbon slr's I could see doing that to...

flag theminsta (Oct 9, 2009 at 13:23)
Yeah.. I think so. I said I think because I haven't done it and it is not my pic. sry

Besides, I rather have a bit comfy seat than save 5 grams.

i have to agree with you there ive gone through the whole weight weenie thing and it sucks i just broke everything Frown

flag isaacsx (Oct 10, 2009 at 6:51)
i could see the possibility to that for a 4x specific bike, but my trail bike, the only one I have a picture of, i would not. it makes sense if you are trying to get as light as possible, but there are many other things you can do before you need to get that drastic.

Drastic? I use it for 4x/dual tracks, and other stuff where you don't go and sit while riding... And when you stand still, it's comfy enough to sit and chill ;-)

If you think you are getting one to=> It's light, and I think it looks cool. The only thing is when you crash and you get the hard saddle in your ass... PAIN ^^

flag isaacsx (Oct 10, 2009 at 16:37)
well, I understand, and that is what I said. I think it makes sense for a purpose built bike like the sx, I have an 07 (black on finished metal) and I think it's a reasonable thing to do to the slr carbon I have on it. I only say drastic because it involves work, instead of say new bars or another part.
