Lurcher setups
I just received my frame and I am still putting pieces together to complete the build. I am curious to how others are building their Lurchers along with the weight of the complete build. I'll start:
Frame: 19.5"
Fork: TBD
Cranks: Shimano XT 2x10
F.Der: Shimano SLX
R.Der: Shimano XT
Cassette: Shimano XT 11-36 10 spd
Brakes: Shimano SLX M666
Stem: On-One 60mm
Bars: Crank Brothers Cobalt 11 740mm
Seat post: X-Fusion Hilo 100mm
Seat: old WTB
Wheels: TBD
I'll post a pic once my build is complete.

There's a post down the page with some pics and builds
I'm running mine SS with nice parts (except for the bb7 brakes, soon to be replaced) and large tires (2.4 ardent/mtn king) and she sits about 23 lbs. (Reba, kings/arches, XTR cranks, etc)
I love my bike, great responsive ride and wonderfully stiff under power. Handles great with a 65mm stem.
what would rainbow unicorn do?

All I got is a 19.5" frame at this point, aside from a Smoothie Mixer and Shimano BB. Thinking of taking the sweet WTB i23/CK wheels off my SS 29er Inbred to get the Lurcher rolling.
Will probably have Steve at SRLPE build a wheelset with WTB i19 rims and CK ISO hubs.
Does anyone have suggestions for a light 100mm fork (preferably with tapered steerer) for the Lurcher? Hopefully a fork that does not cost more than my car?
BTW can I use a regular seatpost clamp on this carbon frame? Any do's and don'ts?
Thanks for any help!
Joe

My steel 29er SS Inbred weighs 23 pounds with a rigid carbon eXotic fork, Mary bars, a fairly stout tubeless wheelset and no other carbon parts.
Anyone know the weights of Lurchers that are out there so far -- geared and SS?
