Oh, and put a whole pile of components on it. We're doing SRAM rival, with Fulcrum 3 wheels and a set of Look HSC3 carbon forks I've had hanging up in the garage for a few years. According to my calculations, the whole thing should come in a couple of hundred grams under 8kg, so not too shabby for a steel frames bike. Modern components are stunningly light. Never mind the weight - it's gorgeous! Let us know when you've painted it. -- John "Cycling's enemy is not the car; it is the idiot. And idiots travel by foot, car, and bicycle." - Bike Snob NYC |

Weight is 7.8kg, to the accuracy of my bathroom scales, which unfortunately are +/- 100g). The pedals, saddle, and seatpost are temporary, and will be replaced by slightly lighter ones, so I expect the weight should end up 7.7 odd. I think that's not too shabby. http://www.flickr.com/photos/suzy_j/5511744062/ Cheers, Suzy |
