Well it's finally done! Here's a quick pic. of the finished bike, and that'll have to do for now.
Till I get a small web site set up to post a whole bunch of larger pics. As well as some
other projects , that I'll add later.
I'll post the link here when it's set up. And yes it's an official 7 lbs. Actual assembled weight was
6.97 llbs 0n the hanging digital sacles at more than 1 bike shop with air in the tires but tires not glued.
Not gluing the Tufo 120's yet. Saving them for races and using heavier tubs for road testing/de-bugging.

I'm gathering parts for a 10.4lbs build, and thought it was light enough... :D

Please post the part weight list!
And you can post the pics at free website like picasa first..

that looks great. non Scott fork I think. Not sure that the old dish cloths add to the glamour of the image though!

Nice!!!! I like the single front ring. Is that a Signature seat + post combo? Very slick. Don't weenie on the glue, though, in an effort to keep it under 7: too little glue increases rolling resistance, which won't help your cause. I definitely want to see a parts list.

Excellent job, wally318!! Your bike looks amazingly clean! :thumbup:

I was thinking the other day how you were progressing on this. How are the bushings holding up that you're running inside the BB?

Nice job. Not to be the wet blanket but you'll need a rear brake to race it since it isn't fixed gear...

Wow, that is something! A very special tool.

Too many spokes in the front though! ;)

Great looking build.
I love my Addict as an all around bike and the low weight is just a great bonus.

BTW,
What's with the "Thread Moved"?
I would think that a 7.0 lbs bike deserves a little more than "here's me and here's my bike" status.
Am I alone?
