Popped it back on the scale yesterday. Comes in at 21.5lb. Not bad to say lightweight was never the objective.
A couple of finishing touches to do- titanium stem and seatpost bolt kits and some nice stainless self extracting crank bolts should set it offf nicely.
Making things easier by adding my Stainless chain tensioner.
I also fitted new titanium bolts to the stem and seatpost. The seatpost bolts creaked like mad until i covered every surface with grease (not so with steel). Time will tell if the noise comes back...
Thanks man, Its a respray in british racing green...
The bike is addictive. I'm riding it on very inappropriate rides and when one of my other bikes would be much more suitable. I did a ride today that i would usually use my Cross bike for, i was slower but there were more jumps, flicks and wheelies
The seatpost was still creaking, it now appears to be the long post moving and flexing inside the seat tube. I re greased (it was pretty dry) and seems to have solved it.
My Dekerf is now my only off roader, so i've been playing around with the set up quite a bit. A lay-back post and shorter stem with risers has made it more versatile.
