    Cham with 140mm Thors is too heavy at 27lbs, looking to loose weight, wheels I think

    haven’t got all the bits yet, but hoping for 29lbs ish, knowing me it will end up a few lbs heavier though

    I used to have an NS Surge with dh wheels, Domains, and a dropper post – came to just under 35lb. It was so much fun though.

    Hate the term “hardcore hardtail” but I suppose Mmmbop is one, weighs around 27lbs.

    I guess if I weighed it it’d be about 30lb.
    The physics don’t add up though, the damn thing keeps flying up off the ground like it weighs nothing at all.

    But then, that’s Chameleons for you.

    If my (Lynskey) Ti456 counts, then I think it’s under 26lbs, but I’m not *that* hardcore.

    My Mk 1 Dialled Alpine with 150mm Marzocchi Z1 forks, big brakes and reasonable weight wheels comes in at just about 30lbs. Might try and get a lighter fork but £700+ to loose a pound and a half seems very expensive.

    My Evil Sovereign is now 27.8lbs. There might be a 1/4lb more to lose, but no more and I’m not convinced the cuttent tyres are right either.

    Never thought to weigh it, Ragley bagger, lyriks and cheap Alex fr wheels (for now) has gotta be about 30lbs mark, although the speed I drag it up hills you would think it was more like 50lbs.

    Weighed mine at 25lb with Whyte 19 ally frame, hope hubs/ztr rims, reverb post, xtr cranks, 1×10 gears and fox 140 forks! Rides a dream and people keep telling me to get a full sus but they always seem to be behind me going up and down. Think i should say they need a hardtail, only way!

    18″ C456, coil RS pikes, hope pro 2/ex721s slx groupset.

    28lb 7oz.

    Could easily shave 1lb on both forks and wheels but its currently serving me well!

    my cove stiffee (with 130mm z1 freerides, pro2/xm321, 2.35 high rollers and easton bar/stem) is around 31 lbs. but i’m taking it apart and selling it in the next week or so. it’s a fun bike, but surplus to my requirements these days.

    XS BFe, Marz 44s, Flows, Reverb, beefy (!) build. 29lb on pretty reliable scales. Light enough to run 1×9 and ride all day. Strong enough not to break so far under a clumsy rider.

    Soul with Float 140s, Zee 1×10, M4 brakes, Flows, UST Rubber Queens, Gravity Dropper; 26.8lbs. Started out a much more XC build but has since shifted over to stiffer, stronger and often heavier parts, which suits how I ride. Not too slow uphill, quicker downhill, when I’m on form! 😉

    27.2lbs for my core 40, only 120mm mind so dunno if that constitutes hardcore, whatever that it…

    I’d guess my small, but absurdly overbuilt DunCon Pitbull with it’s big old Manitou Shermans, and big everything else comes in at… at least ~35lbs. Possibly why it only goes out down the local woods / track these days (often, going off down things on it’s own). 😉

    It’s not particularly ‘hardcore’ to ask. Frankly I’m offended.

    My Blue Pig X only weighs *that much*, but it looks like it should weight *that much*. The Revelation makes a big difference, but I’m still a bit envious of the OP’s Shivers.

    C456, talas 150’s, crosstrails&rubber queens and formula 203mm rotors. 25lbs on the nose.

    I weighed my Cove Stiffee in at 14 and a bit kilogram with a mainly slx and rockshox sektor air build.
    Can I suggest you take that 130 mm fork off and put a 150 mm travel on it . You’ll never want to sell it. 🙂

    Orange Pure 7 with Pike Airs, Pro II hubs/717 rims and SLX transmission here. It weighs in a smidge over 28lb by my reckoning.

    It’s not as hardcore as some, but it’s a brilliant all-rounder.

    Large steel 456, 36 talas, 1×10 and no idea really. I doubt it’d be under 30.

    My first one a 04 Spesh P3 weighed in around 37-38lbs.

    Went to steel frames and still a burly DH spec build, dropped to 34-35lbs

    Went to 853 Superfly styler deluxe 🙂 and some carefull changes but the same fork/wheels, depending on tyres 31-33lbs, Been running a triple butted steel Atomlab Pimp2 which is a similar weight.

    When not doing DH racing, i got a nice Surly KM, haven’t weighed it but reckon it’s under 25lbs, SS and v-brakes, very nice for xc and pootling about.
