strat-trials Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I got my pashley down to about 19lbs with lighter parts than that and matt tongue got his to about 17lbs i think using a hell of a lot of carbon and ti and alloy.

Adam-Griffin Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Does wait really make that much difference? Seems to me that these days people are doing ridiculous and expensive things to shave of a few grams which would lose the equivelant to having a shite before riding.
