Hi everyone!

After a long 10 years without pedaling, I've come back this year to mtb´s. Started with a Scott aspect, but some thief stole it from my garage. Therefore, i started building a 29er on my own, as it follows:

- frame: cs-041 from xmcarbonspeed
- fork: Rock shox Reba 2015 Qr9mm
- wheelset: bor xmc 333 29er novatec lightest hubs spam spokes
- stem: ritchey wcs 260 -25º 100mm
- handlebar: kcnc sc bone 710mm
- crankset: race face next carbon cranks 2x
- cassete: 10sp xtr
- rdr: xtr
- fdr: xt
-chain: kmc (not the nitrite one)
-shifters: xt
-brakes: xtr
-rotors: xt ice tech 180mm/160mm
-seatpost: kcnc ti pro light 27,2
-saddle: Saevid carbon
-bottle holders: xmcarbon
-tires: Schwalbe thunderburt tl 2.1
-pedals: crank brothers eggbeater 2

final weight is 9,2kg, i was expecting less than this, but im working on it, I've bought Ti spindles for the pedals, carbon bar and a stem from lyti bikes, and a carbon seat post from hylix (only discovered lyti today). I have a pair of lightweight Quark rotors (+/-80gr each) witch i will change.

in my wishlist is a dt swiss odl opm race fork.

im looking to achieve the low 8kg setup. I use to ride 2-3 times a week 30-50km, off road with hard climbs, and sometimes i run marathons. My goal is to get ready to a 3 days 300km marathon in azores islands in April.

the bikes rides flawlessly, climb as a goat (sometimes it impresses me how steep i can climb). The only down is the dropout hanger that isn't threaded as i wish. Im looking for a proper onde with a built in nut.

Is the frame weight as advertised?

Price and import taxes?

Are the wheels from poison-bikes? No problems until now? I have to buy a new rear wheel..

Tem bom aspecto a bicicleta :D

Frame weigh is 980gr, 17". Costed around 700usd. Taxes arround 80€.
The wheels are from poison bikes, costed arround 500€, but the price has lowered. Already 1600km on them and going strong!

Thank you
