Luke Rainbird Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Would be good to see more if you can get the link working (I had no idea there was a www.trials-forum.ro!)Edit: Thread can be found here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Winton. Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Please please put the drill down cool i suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitemybutt Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Thats completely daft. Either lose some weight or get a bit stronger. Either of those would be better than drilling a perfectly good frame and making it almost dangerous in the process. People who do this sort of thing really wind me up.

Mr Motivator Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Riding without your phone in your pocket would be lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 But what's important is the Bike>Person weight ratio, not Person>Bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-baby158 Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 I like abit of drilling here and there but that has it snaped yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Jon means it's the ratio of rider weight to bike weight that makes the difference, not the total weight of the two, but yeah... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 I think it looks kool. Would love to know how weakened it is now compared to the standard frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmks88 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) haha that looks cool, i hope it wont break, light bikes are so much more comfortable to ride Edited August 4, 2008 by tmks88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil Jsy Chris Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Haha, looks a bit pointless but still really cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I don't think theres much chance of it breaking on the frame where you've drilled it, it lookes so overbuilt beforehand that it's probably still stronger than a normal frame.

that NBR dude Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 I bet that rim wont even withstand being built. Theres virtually no materal left, its just going to fold in half the second you tension the spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 That rim is rediculous.Surely it won't last,There's nothing left to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
