So I purchased this for the sum $22.65 shipped from a certain website that begins with E. Advertised at 116 grams. The finish is very good and it felt stiff enough on a short ride. Then adding titanium bolts and washers from Toronto cycles more than doubled what I had into it. So for a grand total of $47.15 this is what you get: Not bad for a budget build. _________________ -For my next trick I will set myself on fire! -This board and the world in general would be a much nicer place if everyone could just take themselves a little less seriously. -Sticky Fingers John Rockefeller -First one over the cliff wins!

Toronto has bolts with the small washers installed. _________________ -For my next trick I will set myself on fire! -This board and the world in general would be a much nicer place if everyone could just take themselves a little less seriously. -Sticky Fingers John Rockefeller -First one over the cliff wins!

Accetone the stem and ti bolts and you have a winner. _________________ BIG DADDY B FLOW AERO & LIGHT is RIGHT Cervelo SLC 5890g/12.98 lbs

I ordered a 7. Chances are they're identical with different graphics though. I'll be hitting mine with the acetone and have ordered some Ti bolts too, will weigh it once it's here.
