A $5 and derailluer (sp) cable bet it's going to be 41#

I have enduro tires and tubeless and I'm down to 38 lbs. Any lighter than this the bike will ride really stupid.

So is it the Hot rod orange, or a different color?

I want a Socom real bad, only problem is I have no real use for it.

I think your friend is imagining things. I ride an uzzi, which has identical suspension, and have never noticed a bit of brake jack. Plus the thousands of other people with M3s and uzzi's that have never complained about it. Tell him to get off the brakes.

Also, Its Intense Red, the flash just makes it look orangey.

Semi guilty, I looked at your post about five times could not for the life of my see the word RED staring back at me.

Still one of my favorite bikes right now, but I am waiting for my Intense in the near future.
