What is the point of the lacing pattern on the front wheel? Strength? |

I asked about it myself. Didn't really get a solid answer in person from anyone so far, but I found this online. • DoubleDrive front spoking pattern for increased braking stiffness and balanced spoke tension, allows for radial spokes on the non-disc side for more responsive steering. Who knows? I did make sure that they are plenty strong though. So far all the reports are good for stiffness. We'll see about durability. |

It sacrifices strength though, so it looks like they did 2-cross on the disc side to compensate for the amount of torsion braking creates. I look forward to hearing how those rims work for you Darryl! |

One of the funnest parts of building up a bike piece by piece is having some VERY cool parts in the living room for days, often weeks, or even months? I am surprised my wife tolerated it so well The hand picking (and searching for the best deals) of each part, and finally waiting for the day it comes together......all priceless. Thanks for sharing the adventure. |

Man, I was afraid to even open this thread but then couldn't resist. Some fancy shmancy wheels there. I can't wait to see it all built up. |

Final weight should be around 19.25lbs plus or minus a quarter pound depending on what tires I am running. I'll be running Schwalbe Racing Ralph 2.25's for everything except Leadville, I'll be using Renegade 1.95's there. Either way it's freaking ridiculous. My road bike weigh's over 22lbs. |

That bike is going to be amazing. For a look at weight weenie purpose of mind, check out this bike I was just looking at on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/culturespo ... 571883117/ 14.2 lbs. Maybe not as durable as the build you have going, but you have to admire his dedication! |

Awesome bike. I'd love to meet it some time and see if I could life it with my little finger. Makes me think my Pivot needs to go on a diet. |
