Well I for one, am in the market for a lighter bike...why?
-my current bike weighs 28 lbs.
-I live in a very hilly area by a river, in which a downtown area is separared from a hilltop area with about 400ft elevation, and lots of roads to use, spanning from 5 miles shallow to one mile steep.
-I go on group rides with"serious" riders who have lighter bikes, and while I can keep up, it's a lot of work in hills.
-I'm not overweight, so losing weight isn't a healthy option.
-I'm not going crazy...just want something in the low 20s...
