Of course, the weather forecast calls for rain for most of the week so I may be testing out disc brakes in the rain sooner than I intended.

I did manage to throw the RLT9 on the postage scale (balancing on one wheel) and by that extremely scientific method it weighs 19 lbs 4 oz without pedals. Not a lightweight in a world where 14 lb carbon bikes are pretty common, but for a steel bike that can have front and rear racks and fenders, I'm happy. I'll be adding several pounds of fredness to it tonight while watching the weather.
