Rig is looking really good!!! Couple things I noticed to save a few more grams:
rear brace isn't needed when running the VP axle top
run 3 screws per bead and 3 per hub (running that way for 2 years no issues)
Unless you want the bling ditch the VP lockouts for the stock plastic
remove all connectors from your wiring and just hard wire it
remove the front of the battery tray.
Do all that and you should get into the low 3lbs. Every gram counts!
BTW these are just suggestions as I said your rig looks great! Definitely get some video of it once you get it out!
Thanks, I will take your suggestions into consideration, right now it is time to just start testing the rig to see where it's at. I may or may not go lighter depending on how it hooks up. It's nice to know I still have the option to go lighter if I need to
All kinds of weight you can save but test it out ... Looking fresh bro .. Keep up the good work .... Proud of you

Very nice and well equipped it's looking very good. I enjoy seeing original owner paint jobs and yours is nice and clean well done.
Another way for you to Shed 40 grams very quickly is to drop that 1300mAh battery and run something smaller. Thunder Power makes a very nice 70C 850mAh battery that should work perfectly well for comping. Considering that you have it mounted pretty high on the rig it should make a pretty significant difference.
