my road bike is 20.4# and my touring bike with both racks weighs 33#. Riding the beast early in the year helps build strength for when I get the road bike out after the roads clear up!

I'm afraid to weigh it. It probably starts off at about 20, but then by the time the water bottles, the pump, tool bag, spare tube, CO2 cannister (yes, suspenders and a belt), patch kit, phone etc are on there, who knows.

My bike, cages, HR monitor, computer and pedals = 17.4lbs as of 2/5/09. We all weighed our bikes during an LBS TT series. My son was a double winner that day when his bike, cages, pedals and computer weighed in @ 14.8 lbs.

My bike is rediculously heavy. For being a sub-kilo frame, Sram Force/Red and pretty light componentry, it's like 18 pounds. Practically the same as my Crack'n'Fail.

Doesn't matter.... It weighs a whole lot less than the fat guy pushing the pedals.

It's a GMC Denali road bike. They make them on the same assembly line as the Denali trucks. :lol:

Ahh yes, you're that guy. When you finally get around to buying a real bike, you'll be a real tank i suspect. Not a bad training method.

So far, the Denali rides pretty nice. I needed new pedals for it, but I figure if I ride it into the ground, then I can go out and purchase something nicer- providing I can get around the whole "we have more important things to spend the money on" attitude.

Ignorance is the easiest path to bliss. In cycling, it's probably the cheapest too.

Well, I spouted that line to my wife the other day. I was going to buy another part for the Denali, and I told her I was going to wait, and her reply was "Why, do you want the black bike you were looking at the other day, for your birthday?" My birthday is in two weeks. After I said it, I went into head/desk mode. Oh, well. There is always next year.

Unless it's food or shelter, I can not imagine what those things could possibly be.
But that's probably just me.

My oldest needs braces, and my current vehicle is pushing 15 years old. Not to mention by pick up truck broke and needs repair, and my wifes car needs some work. :notamused: That's ok though. If I wait a year or so, maybe I can get something even nicer.
edit: As for shelter, our kitchen and upstairs bath need rennovation. We bought a fixer-upper a few years back, and I'm still working on it.

Yeah, I was kind of joking. It could be hard to tell with me though, I'll grant you.
To continue that though:
"You think any of that is more important than bikes? Someone needs to get their priorities in order."

02-24-09, 08:01 AM
Hmm. I took the seat off the other day, and I didn't notice any bullion in the seat tube. I imagine my wife beat me to it. That's probably how she was going to pay for the new bike. And when I said no, she probably figured she could keep it for herself. :0)
I just weighed my "race" bike, 20.5 pounds. I'm pretty sure that that would put my cross bike ib the 22-24 lbs range.
Carbon is for girls, and sissymen.
Weighed my bike and myself last Friday before TT I did on Sunday(man do I suck),my scale and the one at the TT 153 pds ,20pds bike.Just had some new wheels put on,bike down to 19pds and I still suck.

My Raleigh Pro is 23 lbs with cloth bar tape, toeclips, tubular tires and a Brooks Vitesse saddle.
My Univega Activa commuter is 33 lbs with a big honkin granny saddle, 700X38's and a set of basket panniers on the back.
Could probably get the Raleigh to 20 lbs, and the Activa to 25, if I really tried...

Or you can see if there's any bullion in the seat tube. :lol:
Seriously, I don't think there was any bullion in my seat tube. I just think the bike is made out of lead.

18lbs. IIRC. I need to reweigh it. 2007 Fetish Penna.

My Giant ATX used to weigh 24 pounds, but I replaced the Fork and added tire liners, and now it weighs probably 26+. I don't know for sure though, I haven't weighed it since I added the weight.
I'm not sure how much my Schwinn Peleton weighs.
