Because we just don't get enough bike weight threads here (I know), we need two at one time.

This forum just has such a unique blend of weight weenies, people who take pride in having a heavy bike and normal people, I think these threads are interesting, but I always find myself scratching my head thinking, "How can a bike possibly be that heavy?" or "Would a bike that light really work for commuting?" I'm hoping pictures will help. If not, it at least gives us yet another excuse to show off baby pictures.

So here's my stable. I think I've ridden all of these to work at one time or another except for the Ridley.

2013 Kona Jake -- 25.3 pounds


2015 Kona Jake the Snake -- 22.4 pounds (and note how nearly identical it is to the bike above!)


2013 Kona Jake the Snake -- 18.0 pounds


2008 Kona Major Jake -- 20.1 pounds (weighed without saddle bag, bottle cages and dirt)


2012 Ridley Excalibur -- 18.4 pounds


2001 LeMond Buenos Aires -- 22.1 pounds


1984 Pinarello Gran Turismo -- 23.1 pounds


1982 Trek 614 -- 24.3 pounds


2006 Kona Kula -- 26.0 pounds
