I will get some scales soon. I have some fish scales, but they only go to 20lb. Yeah lol.

48.1lbs
What I don't know is the gauge of tubing used, but fook me it must be as thick as shit :LolLolLolLol: My fork is very similar, but I reckon it is heavier. It is easily the heaviest fork I have.

Gottem. The intrigue was killing me to be honest. I also am dying to find out the difference between the Ti smothered ally Pork and the others too.
Technically the bike is now finished. Anno stripped the gyro and plate earlier, built the bike. The rear cables need a tiny bit more tension and knarps are not terribly happy with that SNAFU gyro (one keeps coming out) but I think it is because there is not enough tension on them. One side is fine, so I have a feeling I just need to bend the cable a bit.
Hopefully in a couple of days the vinyl will be here and I can 100% finish it and shoot a video on it. Will weigh it too.
Midschoolfool:
OK, done.
Well, apart from the stickers. Mechanical work is all complete, bike is dialled. So I weighed it. 38.1lbs. I reckon the guy on BMX museum was lying about his to be honest. I then weighed the 29" PK on the left. 17.9lb :LolLolLolLol:
So it weighs more than two of those.
Chilli Rinse:
Awesome man, what a cool tank explosion
Just wait until the other decals are on. You've gotta love everything about this build, especially the paint. Top work as usual fistblump
Midschoolfool:
I tell you what is freaky AF.
Someone posted up those DF decals on FB for free. I figured awesome, I will bag those, as they will cover more scratches. So I did, and the guy very kindly sent them to me.
Then last night I was looking at the FBCs on the museum and spotted Brad's 2000 prototype. Look at the down tube !
That's effing MENTAL. What are the odds? seriously?
