eddy Posted March 13, 2015 Share A lot of people have weighed in with their opinions but now one has given a balanced view. In reality, either you are a weight weeny and you already own a scientifically calibrated electronic scale capable of detecting differences in Atomic mass, of you are not, in which case it does not matter. Either way, the secret to a light bicycle on a scale is to remove the bottle cages,pedals and to drain the sealant from your paper thin tyres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocknRolla Posted March 13, 2015 Share It's easy. You tell yourself, " man, but my bike is light"And then make sure you never ride or pick up another bike, ever. Then the fact that your bike is " the lightest I have ever ridden" stands true. Easy, ignorance is bliss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted March 13, 2015 Share Don't forget to take off pedals, saddle bag, pump, bottle cages etc ... so you can compare and quote in a similar manner to bike companies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted March 13, 2015 Share Flip, I hope brickleberry's bike comes in well under 9kgs at least...all this build up then to be dropped like a tonne of bricks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickleberry Posted March 13, 2015 Share Flip, I hope brickleberry's bike comes in well under 9kgs at least...all this build up then to be dropped like a tonne of bricks....Haha, I hope so too. It was 9,2 kgs apparently new. So with all the money spent it better be under 9. Not a huge issue for me, would just like an idea of what it weighs. No weight weenie at all, it's a alu road frame with low spec components mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
