Muel Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Thought about getting a front Try-All tyre? Not sure on the exact saving over a Creepy, but it's pretty big. Anyways, nice bike dude! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex-Mitchinson Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Oh my god that's nice, now get that weight down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Well from my (bad) approx calculations the tyre weighs in at just over 500g, which i'm not 100% sure of, as it's hard weighing a tyre on kitchen scales, so once I can confirm the weight I'll let you know.

JonMack Posted June 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Can't say I've had any problems with the current b/s combo, I'm already gapping further and upping higher so I don't mind too much. I know the Montys might make it look nicer but they wont help my bank balance. Brake should be here tomorrow or Saturday, woohoo! Then forks next week, and hopefully new wheel front wheel and lighter rear wheel not long after *crosses fingers* Edited June 26, 2008 by Mark King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
