Hi Ian ,
My '93 is Tange Ultimate Superlight tubing , I did weigh the frame , just out of curiosity to compare it with my other bikes . Unfortunately the scrap of paper I wrote it on is an 11 mile road ride home , so will probably forget to look by the time I get there :roll:

Cheers mike :facepalm: I think once I have the final few parts together, I'll dig the scale out and see what she weighs compared to the pro

dry fitted the brakes and shift unit controls last night

Guess what , I forgot :roll: I think the frame alone was around 1750g , but will have a look at my 'file' when I get home again , on , er, Monday evening :facepalm: So I will probably forget again

Re:

Time for an update, as it's been a while

For anyone following this build , very nice sorry but I've had very little 'bike' time since the last update,

.however I've been gathering

So bike building for 2016 should be full steam ahead, 3dv style

Well, in the words of James Lawson, I wasn't expecting that!

Any more pics, like with it on!

Re:

Mike, I do have a few pictures of this bike built , however, after riding it last summer, (if that's what you can call it :roll: ) I totally fell in love with the way the frameset handled and rode, so decided to pull the plug and go back to the drawing board :facepalm:

Currently I'm still a couple of parts missing off the list that I'll need to track down in the condition and at a price point which I'm willing to accept before I can call it finished.

As I have not posted a completed picture of the bike for you , I'll substitute it for a picture of the wheels , will that do for now

Re:

Well, they look a bit posh! Are they in yet?

Re:

Mike, the wheels are super nice , the tyres however are not quite the White Onza Porcupines I had originally wanted , and certainly after watching the last set sell for over 450 Euros I figured if I squint enough they'll look close

No assembly as yet , more of a collection of shiny parts
However there is some foward momentum as another missing part for the project landed today ..

Re:

Really pushing the boat out here MrU !

I want tyres that I'm not afraid to get dirty, so black for me. On older bikes that is
Red Fire XC Panaracers default on my more modern bikes
