Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

BITD I used to ride with a ballerina who couldn't have weighed 115#s, and someone who could have been a linebacker.

Guess who was harder on wheels.

My point is that it isn't only about weight, and how you ride is at least as important. If you're a linebacker who rides like a ballerina you'll be fine.
