    What do you think about upgrading MTB tyres to tubeless? Costs in description #### @bikesonline

      Maybe using the tube one until it's done and then upgrade it. Tube one always cost low to change the tubes damage.

      @@4zR1A9 I did get 30% off the tubeless tyres from a Christmas sale, the original tubes don't have removable valves to put sealant in so I was going to change the tubes anyway so I thought I'd bite the bullet & go straight to tubeless, I've kept the original tyres & tubes just in case.

    And that 11.83 is with the bottles and saddle bag...
    I believe you can save some more..

      Thanks for watching, I could get a carbon handlebar etc but I'm happy with the sub 12kg real weight with pedals etc, will re-evaluate after a few more epic rides coming up.

    WOW! From 13.32 kg to 11.8 with only a tyre change and making them tubeless? That's wild! My full sus had these very heavy Maxxis Fiorekasters that were about 1kg each. I then put some Wolfpack tyres and saved about 500-600 grams and being tubeless even more. I was hesitating abouyt the Polygon Syncline, but maybe I shouldn't. How's the bike holding after a year? any problems with the frame or anything?

      @@BoyanGeorgiev666 bike's still going great. Mainly XC trails. Took it on the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail last year, 161km over 3 days, video series on my channel. Had the bottom bracket replaced before the BVRT, I've learnt that if ridden in extreme rain & mud like 2 events last year to take the seat post out & drain the bike upside down to avoid moisture collecting in the bottom bracket area ☺️
