Sannies are not the lightest bikes are they?!! with those forks it must be quite a beastie too.

will have to weigh it, but expect it to be a good 40lb atleast

8'' front and rear discs seem big but are essential..........otherwise its quite a nimble bike, unless your going up a really long hill/long ride/carrying it!

thats the same kind of weight and disc set-up as my Tremor. built for comfort not for speed?
