Bike Weights
« on: February 26, 2012, 07:47 PM »
If you want to add, just 1 picture please and keep the weights in ENGLISH!!  :Great_Britain:  Also, only list the build details that are not obvious and relevant to the bike's weight.

Hi Glen - I have just repeating the weighing, twice on each bike and checking my reference body weight for each bike.  Yes, my originals were out but uniformly out.  The above are now correct and this still leaves the chrome DP 2kg lighter than the other builds.

btw, if it really does make sense to go back to the 1850's and use lbs, I will edit the instructions..

ta,

Paul
