Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Yeah, but that is complete with pedals and all. Weighed as they do in magazines and catalogs (sans pedals etc), it is 15.3. I will go with lighter tubes, handlebars and saddle eventually to knock it down to 15 1/2 for little money.

BMC Race Master SLX01 frame and SRAM Red gruppo. Got a pair of Soul 2.0 wheels lying around for the build. Gotta route the cables, install the chain and take her out for the maiden voyage tomorrow. I'll post a pic soon as she's done. Always wanted a BMC and finally found one for a price I liked at Chain Reaction Cycles. I am pumped!
