There was a comment which referred to all ‘16 Breezers being heavy, which I guess we can agree is misleading if not totally inaccurate.
The Doppler is also the cheapest of the comps I listed by $700, and has over a 1lb worth of stainless steel fenders. I agree 30lbs is heavy, but I’d like to know what comparable bikes weigh in order to give it context. I mean, conversely, 17lbs is pretty light, but if the bike costs $10k and all the comps are 14lbs, it becomes comparatively heavy.
