Looks pretty ghetto. Be careful with that stem, my friend had one that weighs like 45kgs and it cracked on the face plate.

YAY, i get credit :D

got sick of chainless i see so your buying a new frame.

Matt said that you said to him its like 10 kg, and your aiming for 9kg. go for it :D but don't sacrifice to much strength though, because knowing what you do you'll brake anything fragile. :D


And to the people saying "cut down the steerer", he's just sacrificing a bit of looks for a good fiting bike.
I'm 6'4" and i'm going to be running 3cm maybe 4cm of spacers under my stem so the bike feels nice under me, and i know there is going to be people that will be saying "get rid of those ugly spacers".
but i'd rather the bike fit me and look a wee bit ugly rather than running no spacers so it looks FuLLie 5iCk H3Ct1c and having a bike that doesn't fit.

:rolleyes: Pretty ghetto, especially with that swimming pool in the background and all...

Bike looks fly. Just cut that steerer, and lower the forks. 50mm travel FTW!

it has nothing to do with it fitting or what ever it is so that mtbs can do turn downs, that is the main reason steerers should stay un cut!!!!
