I was looking to buy one of these many months ago, but there was no stock then. What's it like? Apparently they weigh a tonne?

And for some reason, this square to round tubing doesn't really suit CroMo, IMO, but I like a bit more traditional style frames...

yes the frame ways a faor bit!, but once i build up the geometey just clicked, and it didnt ride heavy all, though i have put some light bits on it and some heavy bits i cannot fault the feel, but being a wieght weenie rik...im sure u will complain about a bike that buildt up would way more than 10 kg anyway
and the tubing is buff!!! and warrented for like to take a DC fork such as a junoir aswell:P
god to see its already built up man! looks rad! go the oryx's!

Weight Weenie I am :P (http://www.farkin.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10006)

Out of interest, how heavy is the frame? Sounds like a worthy competitor to the .243's... what about tyre clearance?

oh its prob round the .243 wieght, tire clerance is ideal, im running a 2.5 high roller in the back, so it would take any 2.5 and white tiger etc.... i think if i dished my wheel properly...much 2 lazy 2 do so it could prob take a 2.7..... but no mud riding for me though!

[ride_hard199]

ok it does way a bit ... i will weigh sometime ......
but if i want to lose weight I will lose weight .....
i like the feel of it ... just need a shorter stem and new tyres .......
and
