dbd - maybe I missed something here. That saddle looks a little low. Looking at it something tells me you are probably 6' 10" tall but only have legs 15" long, which puts you in the travelling circus freak-act league. You don't jump over elephants and clowns do you?

A lower seat allows for clearance of the sadle when jumping so you do not get hung up on it. Also, you should not be sitting when in the air anyways.

Sorry, DBD. That bike simply cannot weigh 15 lbs. Lance's climbing bike is 15 and change!
I guess once I get the tensioner and chain on it will be 19 or 20lbs.
