A 91 Gt Xizang Le, finished P5

I love these team scream paintjobs 🥰

Are these GT Tech Shop cranks or T-Gear? Hard to identify on the pic 🤔

Lovely bike and great frame 😍

(ahhh... now I see it.... XTR M950 cranks)
Yeah normal m950, but because of octalink b/b it’s much lighter than the square taper I have in the Xizang
 
My Lightning with M950, light tyres , and Ti bars , Thomson etc is 10.2kg
What size is it?

The psyclone was with normal gt steel bars, alloy kalloy post, alloy gt stem, only weight saving would be the wheels I guess over usual 32hole wheels.
Tyres not sure how the re released smoke/dart weigh so no idea if heavy or not
 
18 in GT size

Smoke/dart reissue are heavy compared to Wildgrippers lite s which is running.

I used to own a 7kg ish modern XC bike and there is no way a retro one could attain that weight without big compromises. The frame weighed 900g and a Xizang will be 1800 ish before you start on everything else.

The crank n rings were over 400g without pedals
