    Hercules was a semi god.. and he looks at you with disapproval because you still have your valve caps on. I won't even comment on the pedals, he has shed litters of tears.

    With the bike hanging on scales so we can see the weight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,317 ✭✭✭✭Raam


    Also, someone who buys Tune seat clamps and ILink cables cannot claim to not be trying to reduce weight.

    Not, inverse, reciprocal.

    Seat clamp was a cheap one, not purchased because of weight, ilinks were due to amazingly not hitting budget and were a moment of madness. Need to point out that weight so far is sans bar tape so it'll end up 7 or so. Pics on Monday :-)

    You are protesting too much. Probably you were out earlier buying acetone so you can remove any excess paint. Don't lie to me, I can tell.
