Shut your mouth! 1.4kgs is NOT a ton (also "tonne" in Australia thanks )I’ve got a judge in the spares box. Weighs a ton, so I’ve never tried it.
I'm not sure I really want to know. Kind of want to just install it and pretend it's still the same weight as the DHR II it mimics the look of... That way in my head it "doesn't weigh any different"!Oooo, let me know what your Judge weighs in at.
You are much wiser than II'm not sure I really want to know. Kind of want to just install it and pretend it's still the same weight as the DHR II it mimics the look of... That way in my head it "doesn't weigh any different"!
I have learnt from my own mistakes!You are much wiser than I
@FatMuz has/had a frame for sale on here, he might post up his thoughts?Anyone know anything about Sunn bikes or own a Sunn Kern? Wondering about their warranty and after sales service here in Aus, would also love to know how they ride?
Don’t know anything about them but been looking. The frame at ridesports is a cheap buy. I’ve had it in and out of my cart about 10 times over the last 3 weeks. I can’t get over the tall standover height though.Anyone know anything about Sunn bikes or own a Sunn Kern?

Yeah I've been having a similar dilemma, I think it would make a good trail bike but no real world feedback.Don’t know anything about them but been looking. The frame at ridesports is a cheap buy.

You'll be the only weirdo on a weird bike trying to keep up with your roadie mates... Just get a 2nd hand roadieCaught up with a friend that I skate with occasionally today and found out he’s gotten quite serious on his road bike and heads out at 5am every Saturday and Sunday morning.
Kids sport commitments make a mtb ride on weekends difficult, but I could manage a dawn road ride.
I’m not prepared to go full roadie though.
Group does around 40-50km at an average of 27kmh. Is that doable on a modified mtb? I avg around 23kmh on my commuter bike with 2.2” knobbies and a fairly upright position (although for 30km not 40-50).
If I drop the bars a bit and switch to some skinnier slicks, is that likely going to make enough of a difference?
The alternative is to go a flat bar roadie and stick some pvc pipe on the forks and frame so it doesn’t look so skinny.
Lol wtf. As @Mattyp said.. just get a roadie. Bikes are bikes, and the right bike for the job is always better than the wrong one. Early morning road rides are brill.

Dear god, he forgot to put on his skin mask!
