BMX Weight Weenie
Moderators: robbosmans, Moderator Team
We'll soon do an article on our site about both of bikes we built for Corben, with much better pictures.
Though, if you're after true weight weenie stuff here is my own personal bmx bike, it's just a tad under 11 pounds.

Love the Crumpton, always really nice bikes. Are any of these Weenie BMX parts available through your shop? Or is it custom one off parts like the Crumpton on your Blog? (It's not the same bike, is it?)

How about weightless?
A friend of mine is an astronaut and brought my sons' custom BMX number plate up to the International Space Station. We just got it back with some cool mementos from his trip. Yes, there is a photo of it floating weightless above the earth taken in the ISS observation cupola.

Speaking of wheels... I'm building 10 sets of these. Custom carbon 38mm deep rims. Suitable for tires from 20 x 1 to 20 x 1 3/8 inch. All are 28 hole built with an Alienation Royal rear hub and a custom lightweight front using bladed Sapim CX-RAY spokes and alloy nipples.
First front wheel is 572 grams. Been away racing this weekend so haven't gotten any others done yet.
