Base is VERY strong. Its 2x1" box. There is actually a small triangular support to keep the VD gearbox from twisting, but thats about it. Theres a better picture of the frame HERE

I dont remember the exact number, but that frame weighed about 13 pounds. As of now .. (on paper) .. we're underweight by about 10 pounds.
