nice, and the ss cranks suit it perfectly, normal profiles would look too skinny on that frame :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

seat and pedals look nice and chunky so suit the frame well :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

you just need some chunky looking wheels next, maybe a set of alex supra e rims, they only weigh 845 grams each :LolLolLolLol:

hahaha.  My Bennett weighed around 34/35 complete when  it was finished.  And thats using new school parts  :LolLolLolLol:

Lets see the LTF Andy?

i can only guess what the warpig will weigh in at then  ;D

and the LTF, its wet outside but the most recent pic i have is this one, ive had it since last christmas- best frame ive ever run- imagine it with slightly bigger 4 peice and no doughnuts and thats how she sits now:

I would weigh it but I dont have a set of scales. Not fishing scales, bathroom scales, nothing.
I have no idea how much I weigh, let alone any of my bikes  :LolLolLolLol:

put it on your Wii fit board!

(note: this is also an excellent way to weigh a suitcase if going abroad)

That's going to be tough when it's finished  :daumenhoch: get some Supra E's on it as well! I'm going for 42lbs if the E's are used.
