Oh didn't you remember to empty your water bottle before you weighed it?

Nobody sells Fujis around here, but I've heard of people getting good deals on the Fuji Track for around $450 year-end closeout prices. $600 is MSRP. Only suckers pay MSRP.

My geared Cyclocross bike with heavy parts on it is close to 22 pounds so I still think 21 and change sounds a little portly. That doesn't mean it's not a nice bike, but I think it's fair to call it heavy for a SS roadie.
