Yeah, selected a bike based on weight sounds like an excellent idea. Especially, because you're asking BF for the information resulting in your purchase.
For the record, the FX weighs 44.2 lbs and the Sirrus Comp, 9.3 lbs. I guess you get what you pay for with the Sirrus.
Well, they are not easy bikes to find in shops, I call a few of them, I live in Seville, south of spain, I called toplaces around and even shops in madrid, which is 535 kilometers away, but I can call more places if you want, get a car or a train, I may even take a plane and go to barcelona and see if I find the bikes, Barcelona is a very modern city and some shop could stock the bikes, its worth it to make 1000 kms, I will tell you everything about it
I dont know if is a good idea to select a bike based on weight, I have actually choose these two bikes, the 7.5 FX as I mentioned in the first post and the sirrus comp, based in other criterias like type of bikes , frame desing and components, use I will give them etc. They result to be so similar than the weight could be a good pusher to choose, but if you think I am doing something insane or stupid asking this, or you think I should travel cities all over spain in instead of asking here for anyone's experience with this bikes.......PLEASE KICK ME OUT OF THE FORUM, I will be thanking you for the rest of my like and I will never ask or buy bycicles again without your supervision
