Currently going at 232 lbs. And while I am not riding it YET, I just picked up a Co-Motion Norwester frame. Reynolds 853 air hardened steel, baby! This should build into a PERFECT Clyde bike for RAGBRAI, Centuries, and such. Has mount points for fenders (meh) and a rack (gotta roll with all my supplies) and should still build up into the 24.x lb range with pedals, saddle and rack. Got Ultegra compact 6700 and Kysrium elites on there now and working out stem and set back on the seat post, then should be GOOD TO GO.

Only issue is the color. 'Vanilla Shake'. Bleh. Fancy winter painting project, methinks.
