Anyone know? I'm just trying to see where I can loose more weight, or if it's a lost cause because the frame is made of lead.
Apparently the Carbon Enduro weighs 2.55kg (5lb 10oz) - For comparison.
Loosing weight on a Pitch = Barking up the wrong tree! 🙂
I had a 2004 Stumpy FSR that was just under 6lb. I'd imagine a pitch is closer to 7lb, possibly a fair bit more.
I have been fascinated by this Rider vs Bike weight ratio thing. I weigh 63kg and need a bike with a fair bit of travel and slack angles= Pitch.
The 2010 Enduro Carbon frame is pretty much the same frame, but a shed load lighter (and more expensive).
think trance is about 6.5lb. apparently 'heavy' feels fine to me.
don;t worry about weight mate. tis all in the mind/legs/training.
Hi Flamejob
Top of my head, my Pitch Frame in Medium with just the Headset and Shock attached was about 3.1Kg, i think... 🙂
Scratch that! Found the sheet of paper, was 3.3Kg 🙂
they're pretty ****ing light for what they are, perhaps even too light for how one can be ridden.
so 6.9lb, not bad
My RM ets-x weighs in at 2940g with shock and a little mud, on the kitchen scales, so within a lb of a pitch!
I'm all for saving weight, but on anything that burly weight saving would be getting a 5" travel stumpjumper.
...so it's half a kg heavier than a Mojo HD and one kg heavier than an Enduro...
... interesting.
Thing is.... I havn't broken [i]anything[/i] since the '90s, despite doing some very stupid stuff, so I think I can afford to go lighter on pretty much everything. The problem is travel is normally associated with burlyness and therefore weight.
so 6.9lb, not bad
3.3kg = 7.27lb.
So I was about right then. 🙂 - Light it is not......
that's a very reassuring weight for a bike with 'hooligan' written all over it.
sounds just about right.
anyone wanna buy a Hemlock?
I've had curries that weigh more than that..
yer bunch of lightweight weenie whippets..
😉
Still, it's possible to build one up at about 30lbs without using anything silly-light or silly-expensive, which isn't bad for a 6ins bike. Unlike some of the carbon options, you can be pretty sure the frame will be the last thing to break if things get out of hand too. A similarly built stumpy is only a couple of pounds or so lighter, and doesn't make me feel half as brave.
Mine weighs 30lb on the nose (with the standard tyres)
