Just be cautious. when bike are weighed for spec purposes, the bikes are usually bare of any accoutrements-no bottle cages, no bags, no computers, no fenders, no pedals.
I weighed my rear bag after a brevet once and found that it alone weighed 10lbs with all the stuff I had in it. Add a couple lights and an 18 lb bike and you get to 30+ pretty easily.

THIRTY. FIVE. It seems astronomical but is it? It's not like I have a dutch city bike (well it IS Dutch but a touring bike). Is 35lbs excessive? I kept my pump, an acorn bag, patch equipment and tools and fenders all on it. It's the same bike Iv'e posted before... http://www.flickr.com/photos/ryanrray/6747584237/in/photostream -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
