jambo Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 By all means 7.9kg is light as hell but I would of thought it would of been lighter. lovely simple looking bike all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 By all means 7.9kg is light as hell but I would of thought it would of been lighter. lovely simple looking bike all the same. thats not really impressive considering my pure is 8.2 & doesnt have carbon forks or bars? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 thats not really impressive considering my pure is 8.2 & doesnt have carbon forks or bars? haha you have got 60 grams on me but I was thinking the same about my pure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatrip Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Let's be honest its a pretty standard koxx build except forks and freewheel, that could be uber light, and I would like to see both pures on a digital scale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.KYDD Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 that was on a floor scale though. Seriously it is almost impossible to get an accurate reading of those. Get it hung off a proper bike scale and really prove your '8.2kg' pure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franksx2005 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 That's not an accurate way of weighing your bike though Jake. Look at the spec of my old pure and it weighed 8.9kg I can't see yours weighing that much less than mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 My Rockman is 8.66 measured on digital Park tool bike scales. And thats with a frame 200g lighter than the pure, and with forks a fair chunk lighter than Jake's trialtechs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netto Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The bike was weighed on a parktool scale. Parts that are not standard issue koxx : - Reset titanium bottom bracket with echo bolts - The wheels now have DT revolution spokes - rear maxxis ultralight tube, front continental race tube - Titanium echo SL freewheel - Try-all prototype stem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i like cunning stunts Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Nicest looking trials bike ever made, it really is the dogs underhangings.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Not too keen, but is the inner tube bulging out of the holes in the back rim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Is there no stock bike out there today that can beat the 7.80kg Tartybikes superlight project without the frame or parts being butchered about without drilled and cut out parts?

ghostrider88 Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) If this bike had the same tires as tarty´s project,it would have been good deal lighter thats not really impressive considering my pure is 8.2 & doesnt have carbon forks or bars? Your pure isn´t 8.2 more like 8.5 if weighted properly. Edited July 31, 2011 by ghostrider88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franksx2005 Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Your pure isn´t 8.2 more like 8.5 if weighted properly. I doubt it's even that, like I said my pure (which was a really light build was 8.9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Weight fight! My Pure is 8,5kg with a Maxxis Freeride tube on the rear, a steel bb, TR cranks and King setup. Anyway, love that bike. There's something beautiful about such simple frames, they just look like they want to be ridden hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Gray Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Looks lush, but also looks like it would snap in half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leistonbmx Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 My bike is 9.5kg I lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Evil1 Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 My Inpulse as a standerd full build is 8.5. I think thats pretty damn good, not bothered about getting it any lighter. But im sure if you tried a mix and match of parts you could get it stupidly light Is there no stock bike out there today that can beat the 7.80kg Tartybikes superlight project without the frame or parts being butchered about without drilled and cut out parts? The czech koxx dealer told me Vincents bikes about 7.5, may have even been a lighter than that (probs lasts 1 comp and gets thrown in bin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
