The lads were talking about how they made their bikes a little lighter. One guy saved a pound by ... .. The other guy made his bike 3 pounds lighter buy ........
From back in the corner by the wheel truing stand, a big guy spoke up. ¨I made my bike 30 pounds lighter.¨ Everyone stoped and turned, 3 guys came in from the front room.
Someone asked, ¨how did you do that?¨
The big guy said, ¨I started riding it every day. I went from 360 to 330 pounds.¨
He had tandem wheels. 46 on the back 42 on the front.
forget about 28 ' 32 big guy. You need more spokes.
