|  just keep in mind the 110mm rear dropout width. | blucruz May 27, 2003 7:47 AM | | It's not a standard 135mm mountain bike axle width. |
|  It's a tank, but it will make you tougher... | GA-SS May 28, 2003 3:09 AM | | My 19" was 6.5lbs, but built as you see here with Rhynolites it was about 24lbs. I think the fork was right at 3lbs so swapping to a suspension fork will be no weight penalty. The frame is heafty but you can trust it to hold up and you'll be a stronger rider. As far as the 110mm rear spacing, it's kinda nice and simple, plus you can use a cool BMX hub. If it being $115 will get you into single speed - go for it! |
