MBUK(?) lightest build

[66 triumph daytona]

Anyone remember the MBUK(possibly another mag) piece(circa 1993?) they did on the lightest possible build?They used the lightest bits available,some high end and others very low end like the brake levers(the only part I remember) as they were flimsy and plastic.I think they had it down to 13lbs?

Dave Hemming had a bike built super light for bunny hopping but I’ve seen too many summers come and go to be of any help

I remember a article where they used the original Orange Vitamin T for something like that? Think it was in one of the specials around 92/3.

It wasnt really meant to be ridden,just a technical exercise,it was at the peak of the weight weenie era.I think it had a drilled out Durace mechs too.It had a few really odd bits picked just for their lightness.I think Justin was behind it.

I've got it right here. MBUK Summer Special 1993
Article : Let there be light.

I've scanned it but I've got some problems with reducing the file size at the moment. Bear with me - I'll post it here soon.

Cheers.
