Glad to see it built up Jason, any chance you can get a video out when the snow clears?

I've already started filming, just crap clips so far. We just got a huge ice/snow storm, so I wont be riding for a while.

The weight is mint and it looks as if you havent even tried to go for all of the light parts either

Best of both worlds :)

I didn't want to get crazy light cranks with like a half sided bash, because I'm still a bit of a newb, and I hit the bash a lot, and I use different feet forward for different moves...lol So I'd be hitting both sides of the bash...haha. Everything else is reasonably light. :)

The bike rides pretty damn good. I love how easily it pivot spins. I can still manual it too, which I'm happy about, I just have to get used to it a bit more. The higher bb seems to be making manuals a bit more tricky. I find it's a lot better than my echo control short, but I wish it were as stiff as the control...haha.

put a grind on the rear that will shave a coupe grams.

It is ground, the first picture I posted shows the grind. The picture of the rear end of the bike is before I ground the rim...but I'm not really happy with the grind. I grinded a DOB rim that's on my echo, and the brake is super loud and bitey, and I did the same to this DOB rim and put it on my DOB bike...brake slips, makes almost no noise...and is just shitty in general. Yet the grind looks and feels identical.
