I actually purchased this bike 2 months ago and after stripping of the brakes and changing the seat to a more comfortable and lighter one. it weighs in at 13.8lbs. Super solid frame, the wheels are sealed bearings also super tough. I use it for courier work in down town Miami, Fl. I’m not a novice rider and I give this bike two thumbs up. Thinking about getting another one before they catch on and the price go up.
