Light(ish)weight Pompetamine

Pompetamine is the way forward. Also the Hope hubs are pure win. Neither are going to win any weight weenie contests but if you build a decent bike around them, I promise you won't care!

Hi Chris

I tried to respond earlier today but the post has never appeared and said it had to be moderated for some reason - perhaps because I pasted a bunch of links to other SS bikes and frames. Maybe the board doesn't like lists of html links ...?

Pompetamine certainly looking like a solid option on the basis that the cost saving would enable me to save weight elsewhere in the spec. Nature Boy Zona also a possibility - have asked Triton Cycles for details of frame weight but so far no response. Would also possibly look at upgrading the forks if that's an option.

I also thought these might be possibles, although none tick absolutely all the boxes, and I'm crap at compromising:

Pearson Touche
Pearson Hanzo
Dolan FXE
Traitor Crusade SS
Raleigh Rush Hour Pro
Cinelli Mystic Rats
Conquest Pro SS (2011)

Or this is pretty much perfect, apart from the price!!

Will keep looking for another couple of days, then pull the trigger on the best option and move onto the rest of the spec.

Thanks for your help.
