    My lightest, Scott CR-1 pro conversion. Shares wheelset with the LeMond.

    How much does that front brake + lever weigh? :D

    I spy an eccentric rear hub.

    I’m pretty sure it would drop into high 13’s without the brake. Good eye, ENO eccentric hub is the key to converting any road bike.

    My cross bike is staring at me from my office corner… it says “Pssst! You are going to eat for the next three days straight… leave now and earn your turkey…”

    “…oh and fix my hoods, that’s just embarrassing”

    Number Five is Allliveee!!!

    I didn’t even notice this part of the post until well after I thought to myself “that bike is Johnny Five!”

    Rod and I had a weigh-off of our work bikes at potluck a couple weeks back. Minus the trailers and crates and panniers, of course, but including my tool bag and pump.

    He “won” by a mile! His bike was well over 40 pounds if I remember right — mine was like 35 or something.

    Mine equipped for apple pie delivery today:

    Hilarious.
    Did your bike come with canti rear brakes and direct pull V brakes up front? Also is the front a mini-v brake? I didn’t think integrated brake/shifters worked with long pull V brakes.

    The reason I’m asking is I’m planning a drop bar conversion on a bike with V-brakes and about to order mini-V’s to work with Tiagara shifters.

    That’s awesome. So Rod is in the lead with 40lbs, I think Pete can beat that.

    A most dubious distinction. For the record it’s sub 40! 😡

    I’m putting on a rigid fork, the stock shock is cooked. I’m hoping that will take a few pounds off.

    Tiny-framed new Cross Check, about a month and a half old with 600 miles on it. This photo is from a ride around Burke Lake today. Gorgeous weather!

    Nice bike. I like Burke Lake, especially in the winter months when there’s less people on the trail.

    Farmington Canal Heritage Trail by thetejon, on Flickr

    Doing a little riding while up in Connecticut for Thanksgiving. The trail was a little disappointing – the website talks about this 80 mile rail trail, but then you realize that most of that is in the “design” stage, and what you actually have is 4 miles full of stop signs. Still, nice to get out.

    Also, I realized how lucky we are in this area – Southington, CT, is far from bike-friendly. The 30MPH road we stayed on had no shoulder (or even sidewalks for the most part) and the cars were doing much more than 30. I got buzzed a few times on a 25mph road with no traffic in the opposite direction. Drivers here may be crazy, but at least we have some options.

    The Bike Arl. one is from Revolution in Clarendon, WABA was via the mail/interwebs (I believe, both were gifts)
