Steve, My hypothesis is for each of us, if we wish, to look at our own prejudices towards a material we may actually know nothing about ! Just becasue so and so says it was this or that . It may be true for them... but is it true for me ? And if your favourite frame *could be* 5 pounds lighter for the same price .... would you still choose your heavier one ? .. after all ... weight doesn't matter... right ? lol :)
For myself ... it doesn't matter up to point ! I don't want another 10 lbs. added to my Bombadil for sure ! Nor do I want to ride 1000 gram rims. There IS a difference in feel .... and we need not "put up with" more weight of the bike than we choose to . It's all about our individual choice. That's why we even exist ... to *choose *:) Would I like a F150 that weighed 3000-3500 lbs and had 500 HP and got 50 MPG ? Ummm.... if I could .... I just might want it ! We're all kinda snobbish in our own ways .... and it's okay to admit it ... or not .. lol :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
