Nothing more frustrating than a bunch of close up shots with no side profile shot of the whole bike. Looks like a great setup for her though!

I did a few updates to my bike and she's now under 30lbs.

Tubeless ply tires (795g).

Carbon bar, ZTR Flows on Kings, DW Tuned chain guide, Ti spindle pedals, SLR seat.

Every gram makes a difference.

the urge to murder is strong.

Saw this in person yesterday and it looks sick. Might have to de-sticker the rims on my enduro soon - less logos and graphics makes for a clean looking bike.

Have you considered posting a closer look at the pinup behind your scale??

This trip to Kelowna was definately an undertaking - Liam and I had been planning this project for 24 hours. We worked really hard to pull out all the stops in this video. We had slo-mo goggle shots; time lapses; pedal flips; outrageous product shots; unloading and loading the bike; walking through the field with your hand in wheat. At the end of the day this trip was all about just getting out and riding with all my friends.

My MSL has gained some winter-weight with a Reverb and some DHF 2.3 Supertackys. Also threw on a Chromag Moon. I don't seem to be doing any ride-outs so I think my big ring is gonna go in the near future as well.
