well mine weighs 24lbs and it could be lighter if you wanted it to be, i built it to be stronger as i ride alot of street. the dmr drone is bollocks complete shit, weighs fuck loads and the geometry is wank so don't think that thing is like a capital, i would say test ride a capital or a holy first to see what you think

You can do every bmx trick on these, my mate can do over clicked lookbacks on this so you can ride however you want, i like riding everything except big jump boxes on mine so yeah you can do anything really, http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=32949 thats a link to the 2009 ns capital frame which is pretty much identical to the 2010 and cost 250 for the frame, and your bmx rear hub would fit, you seat post and seat and cranks (prob)so thats a cheaper option, the only reason i didn't get it is cos my mate got one in that amazing copper colour.

i used to ride bmx, and this pretty much the same, the only difference is that this doesn't fuck my back up. This frame is pretty much exactly the same sise as a bmx one if you look at the stats theres not alot in it, it is very different to a holy. The capital is far better but cost loads more. I would say stick to 20" if you get on with it, my capital is as close to a bmx as i can get it without it ruining my back, also every bmx rider that has ridden my bike can pretty much do everything they could on a bmx on it and say that it rides super nice

its 24.06lbs I didn't build this up to be mega light, i just picked the best parts i could think off that would be strong, and the frame forks are bars were bought to match, it just came out quite light i guess

Michael-Phillips commented under Michael-Phillips's photo ( Mar 5, 2010 at 9:26 )
Yeah its the best hub on the market in my opinion.

I have been ridng alloy bars and ridgids for about a yeah now, and i am a big guy, you loves street. Its fine as long as you can take the hits, its down to the rider to absorb not the bike. dead sailors break bikes
