The psyclone was also a 19” frame no real special weight loss components no titanium etc
So just like my Xizang. No excessive weight tuning. Functionality is the priority.
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 XizangI love these team scream paintjobs

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.
