I'm reminded of the general who referenced pearl-handled revolvers and New Orleans pimps.......

well, i think this thread has come to a close with the yellow rims. id love to be cool enough to rock those.

but i do have to once again chalk up another "Quit wasting (in this case everyone's) time and just go friggin buy the ironman"

So I finally got around to riding the ironman. This bike is great. It accelerates so easily and rides so smooth. I'm in love. Im positive I will be buying another one. I had it weighed at a LBS - 23.15lbs. Does this sound right? Is this how much it should weigh?

Big thank to everyone for the good advice.
