pffft, you guys are f*cked

If ridden appropriately improperly, this bike could singlehandedly bring back the drop to flat on the Shore.

Well done.

3 or 4 years ago that bike would have been 45 or 46lbs. Crazy

Not sure how a carbon frame DH bike weighs in at almost 39lbs but it is still very nice! Im just surprised that it would weigh that much. It is a fairly no compromise build though. You fill those tubes up with lead? Im sure ditching the Straitline pedals would save you close to 2lbs though:wink: :lol: Im surprised more people around here aren't running the Der Guide

Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:

ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.

The Wilson carbon is a not a lightweight frame like the V10c… the frame weight is over 10 lbs with the coil shock.

Why would they go that route? A relatively light carbon frame can already be so ridiculously strong and durable I would think a 10lb frame would be overkill?

There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.
