Re:

I'm not a weight weenie at all, but just had the opportunity to weigh this baby..
Any idea what the scale said for the bike in the configuration showed in the previous post?

Should imagine its light by your post, with those forks i would say around 21lb?

Thanks for your guess: you're too kind

I didn't mean to show off with the actual weight, had no clue myself before weighing, so I was wondering if any of you could guess.

It's actually just (just) short of 25 lbs.. Which is only a tad heavier than my 'modern' (2009) Yeti ARC hardtail!

Re:

It is autumn and that is my favorite mountainbiking season of the year.

So, to get my mind off COVID and get some fresh air, I took out the DEAN for a nice spin today.
A lot of great maintenance and construction work is done on the trails in the forests around my home town, enabling a superb ride with quite a bit of altitude differences (according to Dutch standards, that is.. ).

A slight drizzle and lovely temperatures: the perfect conditions, in my opinion.

And it is awesome out there: nice dense trails, beautiful colors and numerous toadstools

I still have such a huge sweet spot for this titanium beauty ..!

Great bike, and good to see you're enjoying it. I took my RM Titanium out this past weekend for a longish ride on an old local railway line, and also love fall cycling.

Re:

In an attempt to circumvent the really wet, muddy paths, I went for some light gravel riding in the area this morning. Cold, but clear weather
After two flats on recent rides, I decided to change the skinwall tyres that were on for a pair of Tioga Factory XCs.

Thanks, buddy!
It is still my favorite retrobike in my modest 'collection'
