Good stuff in general, great for the price. Pretty inexpensive for the frame (@$1500) and converting older 10 speed over to Hydro brakes...

19 pounds even, which isn't bad given there's nothing carbon here beyond the cranks and rear der...

I'm not exactly sure. I bought it roughly a year ago but I don't know if they still are.

I forgot about the fork. It weighs so much I don't know if it should count.

Thanks for the review Charles. I don't suppose you have a frame weight for the Viale do you?

My Fault... No I didnt get a weight. I bet they would put your size on the scale and tell you if you called Lynskey though... They're good that way.

Great job building this bike and, as others have said the review with pictures is equally excellent.

I don't see much info on that Tracer light on the Exposure site (linked in your review). Have you reviewed this separately?

A 19 lb all around touring bike. Very decent.
