i rolled up to a light next to some punk. he gives me the look like ya wanna go, and i give him the look lets go fool. so the light turns green and i just hammer it and jump out 2 or so bmx bike lenghts in front of him and then i get a few more bike lenghts in front in a few secs and keep growin farther away and going down a hill he was about 8 or so bikes behind and when i went around a turn he was about 15 lengths behind givin me a dirty look. so the outcom is I KILLED YA PUNK! bikes, mine-stock with weight redutions next chaos bmx bike, him-custom bmx bike.
haha just had to come up with the story but it is totally true story. btw he was some skinny punk about 5ft6 and about 14 or 15yrs old and im 6ft tall, mostly muscle, and 13yrs old. sorry for the lame story. |

Wow.
So lack of brakes = weight reduction, eh? |

13lbs of pegs, brakes, and a kickstand?
You could lose another 12 lbs by removing all the bolts and replacing them with zip ties.
Then ride down the longest steepest hill you can find. |

I'm taking a guess, but mine weighs in at about the same, maybe less, fully loaded with lights, battery (for lights), saddle bag, tire pump. Oh, and it's quite a bit larger that the BMX bike, the seat tube measures 62cm (measured from the crank to the top tube). _________________ 92 Camaro
