  • Pretty shocked that the M4 is only 4g heavier than XT M775 without rotor and adapter.

    Very interesting.

    My Saints are only 70g heavier than the Hope M4's I replaced them with, and about 500 times better

  • OMG! I put a whole 220G of sprung weight on my AM by upgrading from Juicys to Codes!
    Woah! This is a cardinal sin adding weight to your bike... after all if it's too heavy to be measured on a cocaine scale, it's absolutely overweight, right?

    On a more serious note (if there is anything more serious than adding weight to an MTB) it's a fairly good reference site

    Lol, it all adds up... just one more cream cake ;-)
  • SS, I am a phat bestid and ride an AM bike with a Joplin and other weight features like a Garmin, Cateye Strada, 203F/185R rotors and 235 wide tyres, so 220g will make zero difference to me.
