· Helmet
o
Limar Carbon Ultralight + –most people don’t think
of saving weight with a helmet but using this helmet, you could be potentially
be saving a third of a pound. It weighs just 212 grams (I weighed it) and has an integrated bug net that is awesome when it gets hot.

Other items you ride with

Air and tire plugs, Squirt chain lube
Bike:
·
Frame/Size
o Scott
Spark 900 Premium – Size Medium – Super light at 1890 grams for the
frame and shock. The Scott Twin Loc locks out the front and rear which is super
useful for XC racing.
·
Fork
o Rock Shox SID World Cup
·
Headset
o Ritchey
Pro
·
Front Derailleur
o None
·
Rear Derailleur
o Sram XX1 – The best drive train
set up for enduro and XC racing is XX1. It is lighter, simpler, you don’t have
to worry about dropping a chain, and the gear range is almost the same as a
2x10 set up. What’s not to like?
·
Shifters
o SRAM XX1
·
Brakes
o Formula
R1 in Blue- very powerful at just 275 grams
·
Crankset and gearing
o SRAM XX1 32T
·
Handlebar
o Salsa
Pro Moto Carbon - good width at 640mm and 125 grams
·
Grips
o ESI
Racers Edge- very comfortable, simple, and light
·
Stem
o Odio
·
Pedals
o Crankbrothers Eggbeater 11 – If
you want too lighten your bike up start with the pedals at only 175 grams for
the set. They also have great engagement.
·
Saddle
o Fizik Tundra 00 – Braided Carbon
rails – My choice for comfort and lightweight. Plenty of padding yet still only
155 grams.
·
Hubs
o Stan’s 330 Ti – These hubs are
super easy to convert to 15mm thru axle, 12mm thru axle, and Sram XX1.
·
Chain
o SRAM XX1
·
Cassette and gearing
o Sram XX1 10-42t
·
Rims
o Stan’s Race Gold 29 – Carbon
weight at less than half the price.
·
Tires
o Continental Race King 29
Protection – Super fast rolling with good grip. The Protection is worth the
extra weight. Getting a flat is much slower than being 50 grams heavier.
·
Extras
o Alligator front rotor, Crankskins frame protection - very helpful for
carbon frames
·
Total Bike Weight
o 21 lbs
