When I was shopping for my bike I got it in my head I wanted a really light
one which would "race" up the hills. (wasnt looking for a MTB, but a
Hybrid). Anyway, told one LBS that I was after a lighter bike and he looked
at me and simply said "consider this - if you lost 5 kgs you wouldnt need a
lighter bike!"
What an insult - but true
