Question Guess my weight and win a Six Pak!

That's right, guess the weight of this off-the-rack POS and win a sixer of Fat Tire.

Upon delivery- it will be weighed at the shop.

Closest guess gets the Suds.

Weeeeeeeeee!

Default Stupid Lightls!

So I used to be into the 24hr thing. I have several sets of lights (5.) Last year I let a friend borrow them for a solo event. They used to be individually packaged so I wouldn't accidently charge the wrong battery with the incorrect charger. When the lights returned, they were all in a box-all mixed up! Oh well.
Now that I want to do some night riding again, My batteries won't charge. I double checked to be sure the lights are with the correct chargers, but I could be wrong.

Sorry about the rant. Looks like it is time for duct tape and a flashlight.

Al/Carbon frame? Hmm, It's still got to be at least 3lbs. for the frame.

I'm guessing 25.5lbs.

Here's the spec, so it won't be that light. The fork alone is 4.89 lbs.


Giant XTC Alliance

Giant's XTC Alliance carves singletrack with ease thanks to Giant's quick-handling and responsive Alliance frame. Giant takes advantage of the benefits of both aluminum and carbon through careful, seamless integration so riders of all levels can reap the benefits of increased comfort and efficiency from this unique blend. Plus, the Marzocchi fork takes the bite out of rough trails with 100mm of travel and the WTB rims are ready for any terrain. And, the Shimano/SRAM drivetrain crisply shifts through the 27 gears, while the Hayes disc brakes offer powerful all-weather stopping power.

$1,299.99

Frame: Giant Alliance Aluminum/Composite
Fork: Marzocchi MX Pro Lo, 100mm-travel
Rims/Wheels: WTB Dual Duty XC
Hubs: Formula disc
Spokes: Stainless-steel
Tires: Kenda Small Block Eight, front: 26 x 2.1, rear: 26 x 1.95
Crankset: Race Face Ride XC, F
Front Derailleur: Shimano Deore
Rear Derailleur: SRAM X-7
Rear Cogs: SRAM PG-970, 9-speed: 11-34
