In fact, how do you even weight these tank bikes when they're that heavy? Not many hanging scales have that capacity....

Nothing was cut down the rear triangle was re-welded with extra gussetes. it had 3 ply gazzoladies with a cut up DH tube (inbetween tube and tire to help puncture) slime filled DH tubes. the fork alone weighed in at 16LBS (custom axle)it was a very very heavy bike. i dont have a scale shot (it measured 74.2) on a hanging scale rated to 80 LBS

I had a Norco Drop 5" mini DH rig once weighed bout 44lbs with single ply minions on but to top it goes to the 2001 Kona Stab Primo at 50 odd lbs.

With shivers the lot.

Looked tasty but impossible to lift in the lbs to think bout dropping £6K on ffs!
