Amen to your post!!

My Bianchi Trofeo in its bulletproof no messing around condition for any type roads you can dish out with tools and waterbottles rates in around 27 pounds or more. Weight is one thing for racing and another for the "real world"

> How much does your bike really weight? E. Sloane says my PX-10 weights 21 lbs. My commuter PX-10 with fenders, front and rear racks, 2 water bottle cages, tail light, airfree tires, etc. actually weights 27 lbs. My PX-10 trailer queen with Tufo tubulars, one water bottle, spare, pump, etc. actually weights 25 lbs. My point? Put your "ready to ride" bike on a scale and it will probably weight more than you think. Daniel S. SwordsNew Orleans, LA
