Title: WHAT DOES YOUR OS BIKE WEIGH?
Post by: wildwood1971 on October 02, 2007, 06:32 PM
Thought id start a new thread on what our old school BMX's weigh - not very scientific this but i have used my bathroom scales and converted it to pounds via a web converter. I'll start it of - please post a pic and then the weight - should be quiet interesting as im sure you will all remember weight or should i say lightness being a big issue back in the day.

So heres mine - i have left the number plates and pads on as this would be the racing weight

83 GT PRO = 20.9 lb

Raleigh Team Replica Aero Pro 25th Anniversary (custom) = 24.3 lb

Have fun - my kids looked at me as if i was daft as a brush when they caught me weighing my bikes  :LolLolLolLol:
