That's a really good weight. I would be a weener and ask if you are gonna go sub21 in the future, but I'm probably not going to bother setting the bike up at sub20..... sooo

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 12:00)

I'll change front tire, tube, and pedals. Should shave a few hundred grams, so sub 21 is a possibility.

theminsta (Dec 28, 2014 at 12:58)

Which pedals are you thinking?

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 13:01)

Those fire eyes, I posted in sub 28 a few days ago. Or maybe VP harrier

thanks, im gonna assume the fork and frame are pretty light!

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 15:40)

Frame is mid 4lbs. Fork is 4.07lbs

Thepureface (Dec 28, 2014 at 18:20)

hmm not bad weight of the fork. how about your wheelset did you weigh it?

never heard of woven before. how you like there components?

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 18:33)

Front 700g rear 860g It's a local company from my lbs, they're great, should have warranty should anything happen to them too.

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 18:34)

Those weights are wheels only, no tires ect.

Thepureface (Dec 28, 2014 at 18:52)

not bad

jordanneedsafork (Dec 28, 2014 at 11:19)

love those pedals!

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 11:31)

Wanna buy them?

I want black ones

theminsta (Dec 28, 2014 at 11:35)

Lol I should have gotten black pedals too.. but red is easier to spot - was the reasoning

jordanneedsafork (Dec 28, 2014 at 14:24)

but the blue is special edition! and i have them, and the bars, and the seatpost. all in the special edition blue. you can get a ti axle kit for the neutrons and that'll drop you a few hundred grams

Kop5 (Dec 28, 2014 at 14:26)

Trying to get rid of the blue. Ti axles saves less than 100g and at the price I can buy new pedals that are lighter.

johnson5 (Dec 29, 2014 at 20:47)

damn dude that was pretty much the same weight as my banshee

Kop5 (Dec 29, 2014 at 22:03)

Wasn't yours like 24

johnson5 (Jan 1, 2015 at 2:22)

21.3 bro

Kop5 (Jan 1, 2015 at 13:21)

Scale shot please

johnson5 (Jan 2, 2015 at 0:08)

Does it matter man? I sold that bike a year ago.

Kop5 (Jan 2, 2015 at 4:39)

Sorry man, but I'm not about to believe that an amp with average spec is 21.3lbs without proof. The fact that on one of your ads you said it was 23.5 doesn't help. For your build 23.5 would be a fairly reasonable claim.
