Carbon_Dude:
Nice Chiner SamSkjord, what did you use to wrap the frame and the fork?
Sitar_Ned:
Love the lefty. Very nice build indeed. You know the weight?

One of the better pics of your bike. Awesome looking for sure!

It's self amalgamating tape made of silicon and slowly fuses to itself but doesn't stick to anything else so is easy to remove and replace, about 6 meters does the rear triangle, weighs around 100g and looks pretty cool imo.

It weighs precisely 12,768g, according to excel anyway.
Bathroom scales say 12.7kg which is about 2.7kg heavier than I'd have liked but that bars/stem/seatpost were the cheapest ones I could find until I get round to doing a proper bikefit, will swap the rims for carbon ones at some point too.
Carbon_Dude:
I would also expect you bike to be lighter than that, with the lefty fork I would expect around 11kg. Possibly your bathroom scale is off by a few lbs.
