Something in the 12s? 12.2kg?

For a 29er full sus... and an XL one at that. If this was under 13kg it would be impressive.

Nice looking bike though.

Oh didn't see it was an XL. You are probably closer to the mark Rob

Is this like guessing the number of lollies in the jar? Do I get the bike if I win? Smiling

I wish Buck was right but that would be too much to ask. Comes in at 12.76kg as you see it. That Specialised is bloody huge! Must get a hell of a view from up there!

that's a tidy weight

yes its massive, but i'm a big boy so its all proportionate.
