What is everyone weighing in at?

A light bike doesn't replace good fitness.

Half a cm more than me. My goal for this year was 67 kg until I changed my mind in may.
It bothered me that I looked like a small boy with no upper muscles. Do you have any pics?

This is starting to get salacious majklnajt :lol:


Why not work with what weight you're riding strongest at and not be so concerned about weight? As that's going to yield the best results.

This thread isn't great for riders self image. It's a pissing competition where people just throw up their (normally low) weight and we get nothing more from them.

The most 'Pro' looking rider (in terms of build) I know races out of C grade and gets dropped. Yet he could post his weight on here and have people impressed.


In fact, here is an excellent article that sums it up better than my poor attempt

:D :D
Actually, I am more concerned about the looks.... :?
I love the look of skinny, "zero fat" cycling legs. But "hate" the skinny-school boy upper body look.
I know, I cant have both! ;)

Been this size and weight since Freshman year of high school. Weight tends to bounce between 120-130pd depending on what sports I'm doing:
Cycling and swim=120-125 *low end*
BJJ with some cross training =130ish *high end*

Before you ask, yes I can climb :thumbup:
Looks like I made a new 90 Proof friend

Guess I'm on the heavy side therefore I need a true weight weenie bike! Current ride is a 13.1lb road bike. Reducing equipment weight seems easier to achieve than reducing body weight? :cry:

Age: 42
height: 174cm
weight: since I was 18yo, 63-64kg no matter what (months of nothing or months as a brickies labourer makes no difference).


Update on my original entry about 3 years ago - this thread sure is sticky! Now 45. This past 18 months I've been around 62kg, no matter what. Still same distances and a shade higher average speed, but max is higher for longer (my numbers aren't impressive, but they're good for me).
