Which I realized, and responded in kind :}

I would've photoshopped a response, but that's too much work :P

That bike Ed has in the picture is the Moto slayer. If you feel like doing a search (I don't) you might be able to find the thread talking about how that bike ate a Motobecane on the trail.

Every time I get on mine, I look over my shoulder to see if Ed is lurking in the weeds, waiting for his next meal.

Yah...I need to photoshop me a picture of the Pointe with some "Death Race" upgrades.

Favorite yet.

Haha awesome.

Now I want a shark bike too :twitchy:

1. I can tell that you're a roadie.
2. I can tell what 2 weight-weenie thingy's you're most proud of.

;)


Nice ride TTdood:thumb:...is there a target weight you were shoot'n fer?

still have to change a lot of things, wheels and brakes for sure, kcnc and macics, and then some xtr as well. and the fork is not that bad for some xc either.

oh hats mavics. ah my english is sooo bad....

gees, i m gonna throw this lap top from the roof, hats is THAT S,

I AM aiming for something near 8kgs 8.5 maybe. its hard with an aluminium frame

um, there is an EDIT button, FYI :)

i know i know. idiot me

I ficked it fo ya. Now at least the whole pile of seaming literature is in one post:lol:

FYI, shimano mechs are really heavy, so I'd start with that.

yes, in fact , i will use mavic sl v brake wheels, kcnc v brakes ( incredibly light), and maybe xtr crank set, though i am not sure on this one.

So far so good ! I'm waiting for the new wheels and for the snow to go away before I get in a 'real ride'.

But just dorking around on it in the 'hood' and it's a really really nice bike!

barf

So whats going to happen to the domain? Is it going to turn in to one of those pay per click sites that you end up at when you forget that it is Konaworld and not Konacycles?



Edit: terrible joke.

+1:lol:

Thats really quite good. Is it one of those new thru-release forks?

Nice stonework. Better than a garage door.

Huh? Meaning QR15?

Well, no. It looks like a TA hub, but the fork looks like a QR ;)

I just got the frame and am in the process of swapping the parts from my '06 Gary Fisher Tassajara. Then as money comes, so will new parts.

Work in progress:
