IDK but there is a geo chart on page 16 of this thread for the 725.

Sweet, St Angie. I :love: mine too.
|
Another 49! Mine's not quite as featherweight as yours and I've yet to put it on a proper scale but I did the old "weigh yourself, then weigh yourself holding the bike" trick and it comes in somewhere in the neighborhood of 17.5 lbs.
|
Mine has gained a bit of weight to 16.3 lbs since I last posted it, due a change in the front wheel and the addition of a second 16T cog on the flip side. I removed the very light Zipp 303 front and replaced it with a wheel I built up from a Milwaukee Bicycle Company (Ben's) hub, Sapim Laser spokes and Velocity escape rim. The tire is the same 22mm Conti Competition tubie. I got my first chance to use the Hozan lockring pliers I bought from y'all and, wow, what a difference ! No more loose or stripped lockrings forevah. My Wabi Lightning is the new lightweight champ now, 15 lbs even, including a water bottle cage.

That's one clean looking bike. Great job Angie!

Thanks!

I quite enjoyed my mothers camera when I had the chance to carry it around with me on a ride, but this time I only had my iPhone (3gs). I rode Prez, my buddy tried out the 722 (definitely a step up from his schwinn mtb) and he can't wait to get a road bike. We were ~15 miles into our ride when I realized that my handbuilt rear road wheel (Novatec to Razor with DT Comp) acquired a nasty wobble. I need to get it trued up by a pro this time. no damage, but the 722 is out of commission till I can get around to repairing all the little things (brake housing, SRAM hoods, new bar tape (I think it might even be the same bar tape I've had since the Kilo! o_0) wheel trued, tune-up) Tho with the transformation, it only came out to around 1-2 lbs heavier... Quite surprising when you think about it (Just the seatpost and saddle alone tallied an extra half a pound). https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-y...282%252529.JPG Note: better photos of the 722 rebuild to follow soon |
Finally ordered a 722 from retrogression :D will post pics when it comes and I put it together!
