anyone know the weight of a 16 inch geared in bred 100mm model
cheers
about 5lb
Sounds about right. It's not really the frame for you if you're worried about weight though...
my 1st gen slider was 5lb.
just deciding wether to trade up to a scandal or a ti frame only real advantage is the wieght saving, looking at 1.5lbs is it work the extra cash?
up to you - it's more about the feel of the frame rather than the weight loss.
USUALLY alu frames are alot stiffer - the Scandal may be a bit more forgiving than that though.
Ti frames feel different again. Bit odd to be considering frames at £175, £275 and £1K odd though ❓
IIRC I weighed my slot dropout frame at an ounce or two over 5lb
I know a Merlin Rock Lobster 853 is virtually a pound lighter....
have an inbred, just got titus motolite to look after for 3 years, had a scandal in the past, just trying ot decide if building a lighter hardtail is worth it, may look out for an 853 rock lobster frame if that is down to about 4 lbs, ti and scandals i think are about 3.5

Does the RL ride in a way you like?
