RossMcd Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) UPDATE..it now weighs 9.67kg. Next I am going to drill the rims, frame and forks. Seeing as it has steel forks its fairly light Im glad I managed to get it under 10kg Riding with a Puncture..Gave up pushing it up the hill with a Puncture so I began carrying it up Edited July 13, 2009 by RossMcd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossMcd Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 After a night with a drill Didnt manage to finish the rear rim Drill bit snapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatrip Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 the drilling is weird but cool! you could drill the magura mounts and surely using bolts in them would be lighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMcd Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 I thought about drilling the clamps today actually! And bolts would be alot lighter however the mounts have already been tapped and stripped at M6 so there isnt enough material to retap and helicoil. Jubilee clips are the only option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossMcd Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 On you're summer holidays son?Brake set up looks howlin!

Stump Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Yeah I am and the brake setup works well Actually one of the best back brakes I have used with zoo pads to be honest. Its loud and holds well! If its dry I got to admit the back brake does work well ( If its dry ), even though it is badly set up Still look's a little bit better now that it is drilled, it must be super light now I do like the hose routing going through the frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMcd Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 reset my brake square to the rim and now it doesnt do that annoying squeek! Its more monsterous sounding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
