Re: Softail titanium MTB 29/27.5+ (all mountain - bikepacking) Weight : it is an estimation. Expected weight, around 2 and 2.3 kg. Not weighed yet, we'll see.
The rear suspension : the titanium plate flex is the pivot. The seat stays are flattened ton flex as well.
Cable routing : rear derailleur and dropper post = internal. Rear brake = external (easier maintenance etc.)

Other bikes with this "technology" :
Funk Cycles - La Ruta (2.2 kg frame)


Leon - Semita (10,5kg) or Montem (12,5 kg)



My bike is something between a hardcore hardtail and a trail bike. I hope i will enjoy it :-)

Re: Softail titanium MTB 29/27.5+ (all mountain - bikepacking) Final build. 11,5 kg without pedal and GPS mount, 11,7kg ready to ride.



Here is the monster  :o








Here are some details









First test ride :
not tested yet on the trails. Tested on road (1st SAG setup). The position is perfect, exactly how i calculated it.
Once suspensions locked, the bike is very responsive. Once oponed, the rear suspension is not as smooth as a "rear" full suspension bike, but not as rigid as a hardtail. It feels like an elastic hardtail  ;D

Very looking forward to test it in the mountains.
Before going bikepacking, i need to sew the packs. Something that should look like this (but with very small saddle bag)

Re: Softail titanium MTB 29/27.5+ (all mountain - bikepacking) It is mounted like this :










And on the upper side, I mounted an enduro bearing needle to have something as smooth as possible :

Re: Curious what build weights people are averaging on their bikes?
I didn't build my Chinese carbon frames/bikes with particularly lightweight components, but I think they turned out pretty light in comparison to my other road bikes.
2018 Chinese S5 replica 17.4 lb.

Man I have been looking for a decent S5 "inspired" frame for a while... what is the make and model?

Here is my build. FM208. I got it down to 6kg/13.2lb with a carbon saddle, 1x drivetrain, tubular wheelset + Tufo S3s. Was awful to ride and slow though, so I put my padded saddle back on, went back to 2x and got some aero wheels + GP5Ks. Glides like a dream now.

Re: Curious what build weights people are averaging on their bikes? Here’s my heavy duty do-it-all bike.
Custom steel frame - Columbus Life Tubing. Made by Jacek Orlowski who used to build the Polish National team’s track bikes at the Szczecin velodrome.
He also did the custom paint job.
Fork is Carbonda. Handlebar and seatpost are from Aliexpress. (Elita One and OG Evkin).
The wheels I built myself.
Asymmetric Carbon hookless rims built with Sapim CX Rays and Novatec hubs. 32 spokes front and back. Weight: A touch above 1400g.
Groupset is SRAM Rival with TRP Spyres. Sram Red Cranks. Sorry for the pic from the wrong side.

It’s a lovely ride. I use it for gravel, commuting (as pictured) and loaded bikepacking.

Weight as pictured: 9.6kg - not including the rack and bag.
