Finished my Capital 2 build last night - comes in at 21.49lb
I knew it would be light, but I never expected it to be this light, considering it is built pretty strong!

A massive shout to www.ribbed.com.au for all the goodies!

Build List:
Frame: NS Capital 2
Fork: NS RNS Rigid
Hubs: NS Rotary front, Proper rear
Rims: Sun Rhyno lite
Stem: NS Quark
Bar: NS District (un-cut)
Cranks: Demolition cromo
Pedals: NS Aerial
Tyres: KHE Mac2

Sorry for the poor pics, only had my phone to shoot them after i built it.
Will have quality pics up soon including better scale shots.

can you still do footjams and footjam whips with that big gap between the tire and the crown?
