all the people shouting up sub 10kg stock bikes need to post up their entire spec.... as i dont quite believe many of them ....

anyway - mine is averagely fat at around the 24lb mark - 10.9 ish kg.

To be honest Ro it's got a front tyre and inner tube missing plus i don't trust these shizer scales. As Adam said the SCALES OF TRUTH will do their job properly. tee hee. gotta be less than ten kilos.

I want to weigh my bike(s) properly now. Can anyone recommend a set of scales (digital preferable I suppose) that are good? There are loads on eBay and they mostly look cheap and rubbish, but can anyone recommend a certain eBay shop?

I might get those i posted up earlier in the thread from ebay, want me to feed back if they're any good?

I dunno how much mine weighs, but I know its not going to be the lightest. I use Mavic EX721's front and rear, no drilling, I dont have the lightest of components either, cos I just don't want anything to buckle, snap, crack or break. Just want stuff to last I guess!
