    Finally, the Slopestyle has arrived

    No BMX for CB this weekend...

    33lbs as pictured.

    Wow, beautiful pics Eric.  You have out done yourself.

    One problem...Kenda tires?!!!  It's like someone took a ketchup packet and sprayed it on the Mona Lisa.

    Killer looking rig Eric.  I'm sure that that CB's gotta be stoked with it.  Curious though...what did that small frameset with the coil weigh in at - if you even bothered weighing it????

    Whatever, Buckley has lost all credibility with me!!! (Frame is probably strapped to the back of a burro...dead from exposure somewhere in the Cascade Mountain Range.)

    Those pics are amazing!  Looks like multiple light sources.

    CB loved it on its first ride yesterday up in Big Bear. She got 6 runs in with no serious numbness problems. Whistler here we come!

    I did weigh the frame right out of the box. With the original 350lb steel spring it was 9.15 lbs.

    My medium weighed pretty close to that as well.  I was a little surprised to see that the SS weighs very close to the Socom.  What spring is she running?  I'm running a 400 on mine and get about 31% sag without a pack.

    She's running a 250lb at the moment. She gets around 32% sag with 1.5 turns of preload.

    Might have to switch to a mattress spring if she loses anymore weight.  Wink
