I rode down a couple of flights of stars today (with my cast on) wanted to try the stan's no-tubes that I just put in today. The brakes are very nice.

No offence. You scale is off. I have virtually the same bike with the smaller kit and with a djer with no chainguide and mine weighted 41pounds on an industrial scale. With the bigger kit and a dc fork and an mrp chainguide as well as what looks like standard parts, I doubt yours comes in that light. And doesn't that shock weight more than a standard fox R?
BTW is that stem the aluminum generic ones made by the same company that does the ones for azonic? I have been looking at buying a couple of those cause they are cheap and the perfect size (70mm and 10d)...If so how are they?

Yea.....about the weight. My bighit which had a double bashring/mrp boomerang guide, nokians, and a junior T came in at 42. The demo is 47 lbs but it pedals REALLY well (or maybe I am just really strong which is also true). And as for the stem I am sooooo sure its race face diabolus.

I have shaved quite a bit of weight off the bike, especially in the drive train (X.9) and cockpit (Pro-taper standard, Chris King, Diabolus standard 50mm), running Stan's no-tubes and magnesium body pedals. Good eye on the stem Klein. Ti spring on the 5th.
The MRP is as light as running a triple or double w/bash guard and front derailleur. The DJ2 is by no means a light weight fork and was only a little lighter than the 04 Sherman Slider +.
Oh yea....The Mono M-4's are lighter too
But I still love your demo 9 Klein!!!
