Lighten up your bike...

find all the lightest component will do the job.

Like 28h wheelset for front and 32h for the rear

1.rectangle hole on rim
2.Aluminium bolts
3.Titanium bottom bracket
4.Titanium spokes

Nice advice @thenextbike, how much does your bike weigh? I bet your bike is very light.

Most of us here make do with what is available locally, like I use a 36H rim front and rear. But I did go for rectangular holes

my 20" is 8.5kg, is with titanium spokes and aluminium bolts but is running front 32h rear 36h, not much of any big modification.

erm make sure your rectangular holes doesnt have right angle.make it abit round at the edges because sharp edges tend to break or crack.

woah 8.5kg must be like feather...so light...I wonder how it performs in gaps and ups

I wonder how much are Titanium spokes @thenextbike? What brand are you using?

My bike is still heavy at 12kg more or less. I would like to go around 10kg on my next bike. I'm thinking of getting DT swiss or another brand for my spokes.

I will still stay on a heavy tire whatever happens hahaha.

wow! 8.5kg???

my baby is now 9kilos!!!and only 6months!

and damn!!! she's heavier than your bike!!???!!!

DAMN IT, GUSTO NITO!!!

ang ganda niyan ewik..magkano kaya iyan?meron ba niyan dito?

Ayan gusto ko nyan.

Maganda rin ata sa bike ang transparent? Nag popowder coat ba ng transparent sa Republic? hehe Di kaya pangit tingnan ang BB ko kung magiging transparent ang bike ko?

Matutupad na din pangarap ko maging wonder woman acheche.

hahaha gusto ko bro yung glow in the dark..san kaya meron nun? pakulayan ko yung chucker hehehe

maganda nga! magkakaroon din ng plastic pedals sa BTS.pero ang sabi sa akin ni blake, baka next month pa. pinag-aaralan pa daw nila kung ok yun for trials purposes. sana matuloy. di ko nga lang maalala ang brand. nakita ko lang kasi yung brochure nung andun ako.

i have read an article regarding titanium & crmo spindles.

titanium spindle will only save you 1/4lb no matter what you are told & is never as strong as the crmo spindles.

siguro sa ibang pyesa ganun din yan

Tingin ko din

@dyani sa cartimar ko nabili ung akin noon, actually nag hoarding ako nyan dati kasi di pinapansin yan noon, mas pinapansin ung shimano DX. hanap ka ng old school na bmxer baka may naitabi pa sila nyan, yung Old school version nyan MKS ang tatak. malamang sa HK meron din nyan kasi dami flatlanders dun.

ah. wala na ko sa HK. hehe... sana nga meron pa dito. thanks sa info!
