Long time lurker, first time poster.

Here is my collection of semi-weenie bikes. Nothing drilled, dremeled, or bonded together. I have a deep dislike of noises coming from bottom brackets and a habit of breaking things so everything is spec'ed to not really have to worry about either.

As for weights, I don't know (tisk, tisk). The English is something like 12.5 lbs when Rob weighed it out the door. The Ibis would be next, but it has a more of a training spec. The Open is light for what it is, but it has 650b wheels and a lot of rubber. The Borealis is a fat bike, albeit one with a lot of carbon including kuroshiro rims, but still a fat bike so adjust your expectations.

This is the first time they have all been clean at the same time so a photoshoot was in order. It was the first time for all of us so please no comments on the lighting :).

If the flickr photostream does not work if someone could PM me ideas for adding photos.

I have simply proven that I can make questionable financial decisions. The guys on this board that are pushing sub 5kg bikes in many cases actually create new things specific to the build.
