Superlight Sir 9??

This is not a niner but a light buildup.... My SIR9 with shitty wheels and tires and the Reynolds fork is at 25lbs..... and mechanical bb7's... Im sure I can get it down to 20 with wheels/tires/cf fork and some super light hydros if i wanted too... its a large by the way.

My Large SIR9 single speed is a not-that-light 24.5lbs, but it's built for trail riding (F29+Flows). Some of the lighter parts I have on it:

Crank Bros Iodine directset (~70g)
X-pedo ti/ti SPD pedals (~200g)
tubeless Stan's set-up with Stan's tape
ti seatpost
ESI "chunky" grips
Crossmark 2.1 rear tire (not that light, but really roll, and decent volume for a 2.1)
ti rotor bolts (completed retarded purchase, but now that I've got them...)
Syntace Vector 31.8 carbon bars (680mm, 12d bend, 200 grams, 10 year warranty)
