Cool setup. I like it how simple the bike looks. Still IMAO you could lower the rotating mass a bit. These tyres weigh a ton and the cranks are at least 100g heavier than they should be Wink Regarding the tres I don't know the kind of trails you are riding and how fast and aggressive is your riding style, if you have really rocky local trails and you like to rip the rockgardens apart, I guess you made the right choice Smile

I ain't gonna change cranks to lose 100g in fact I've had XT cranks on the bike earlier (at least 200g lighter) but they look boring and I couldn't feel any difference in performance. As for the tyres - yes they're heavy but they feel great bombing down the hill and that's what I'm most interested in. I've got all sorts of parts at the shop that I could use - what you see here is what I like.
