I'm sure there was a thread for this somewhere already, but my search proved fruitless... sorry :oops:

So, how much does your DH bike weigh?
weight can be in pounds or KG, but I think KG would be better since we aren't american.

Here's mine, I just chucked it on the scales

Frame make/model: Mountain Cycle Shockwave, 2001, 8"
Fork make/model: Risse Champ inverted, 7" (big chunky thing)
Complete bike weight: 19kg / 42lbs

I'm just curious how much different peoples bikes weigh :P

Nice. Is there a thread anywhere here with your full build kit listed? Be good to see the spec on that machine.

it's probably worth noting what kind of scales you used to get your bike's weight. The old bathroom scale method of subtracting your own weight or using some fishing scales probably isn't real accurate.

*cough* Bullshit *cough*

The bullit was lighter than yours, so you might want to go and check your scales again...

Yeah I'm wondering how that is possible. My build is very similar to the 'Dale but comes in nearly 2 and a half kilos heavier, so unless the Cannondale has a 3.5lb frame with shock then I'm lost.

I find it funny tho that my mate has an '04 Norco Bigfoot and it weighs in at 17kgs, prolly his stupidly big .243 stem ;) , or it could be what 2200$ extra gets u tho.... "i gotta get that hole in my pocket fixed....."
