Funny timing as I saw a review of a walnut frame bike on youtube a few days ago. It was interbike or whatever that huge bicycle trade show in Vegas is called.
Havent met anyone near me with a walnut bike. Thatd be a conversation starter for sure.
I have met a few guys who ride boos bikes as the founder is originally from Iowa and each knew/knows the guy.

So was the walnut bike absurdly heavy or pretty normal?
