ghostrider88 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 That will make it ride a lot better no doubt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Nah think i'll be needing a higher/longer stem than those as i feel really hunched over on it. Not too bad with my current stem though, had a wee shot on it and it feels lovely! Giving it a proper ride tomorrow Cheers guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradJohnson Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Run loads of stem stackers, and you should be okay, unless you cut your forks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Think the rockman stem might be okay if i tilt my bars back slightly as theyre really far forwards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockman Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Nice as f**k. But I doubt it's 7.7kg with that back tyre and a bb7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Nice as f**k. But I doubt it's 7.7kg with that back tyre and a bb7 Weighed it with 2 different scales and they both read 7.7kg. Thanks though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williams Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Wow dude that's really light! Anyway, I still love your bike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew_coggan Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yeah I also think the weight is bullshit. I would only believe it if i saw a pic with it on the scales even then you could of zero'd them wrong to make it seem lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that's going to a lot of effort to prove to a load of random people on the internet, who don't even really care? Kieron isn't a dick, it's not like he's going to lie for the sake of willy waggling. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have to agree to disagree I think its bullshit and am not the only one who does, just stateing my oppinion. Bike looks good and is prob very light, I just dont believe its as light as he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Why would i lie about the weight of my bike? Would be pointless. Im not trying to get people to think my bike is amazing by stating a false weight... Ive weighed it a few times with 2 sets of scales and it always says 7.7. If you really need proof ill take a picture tomorrow night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
