Now this significant devotion to a couple of brands of bikes is completely reasonable in my mind (which should likely worry you).

What's this bike weigh?

Having a hard time with the drool reflex on this one.

Jesus, that's sweet. Generally I'm pretty content owning just 3 bikes these days ( and one is out on semi-permanent loan ), but daaaaammn that makes me just wish for one more ... Honest: just one :p

We've been over this before...some folks never pay attention in math class.

Oh, and nice ride, mate. If your letting her go cheap I know of a certain 13 yr. old kid looking for a ride.

She weighs in at a portly 23lbs. ;)

I wish I could afford to make a 13 year old's Christmas come early, but I'm only letting her go to finance another bike.:o

She weighs in at a portly 23lbs. ;)That's pretty darn svelte for a steel framed bike.
