This is the bike with the most modern tech in my fleet. It weighs 20.65lbs if I remember correctly. Might be without the pedals. 3x9 with a square taper BB. It could have been a 10. I'm simply posting it to give context. It's an 84 56cm frame. I have a matching 83 with old school manual "electronic" shifting called friction barcons. Only 2 Shimano components on there, the 5500 hubs and the Deore RD. All of the components are mid level at best, except for maybe the Dia Compe dual pivot calipers. They were picked because of their weight relative to what else was available. Again, not posting to compare if it's better, equal, etc. Simply posting to drive home the point datlas made. Unless your bike is disc equipped, it's in the same situation as this one. Doesn't matter how old or what level it is.
