Now, now Steve... A _scale_ is merely a device for measuring weight. What one decides to do about it is the important question. Me, I like a little heft in my bike. A scale is good to make sure it doesn't get too light. Sometimes I'll swap stuff between bags and end up down in the mid-twenties. Good quick check before you head out and get pushed all over the place by winds and wingbeats. ;^) - Jim "tongue planted firmly in check, though this week I actually wondered why my Hilsen felt heavier until I realized I'd stuffed two u-locks into the Country Bag rather than just one..." -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Gallery updates now appear here - http://cyclofiend.blogspot.com "That which is overdesigned, too highly specific, anticipates outcome; the anticipation of outcome guarantees, if not failure, the absence of grace."
