"The lightest bike you can buy is 9.o49499105 lbs. This bike is not sold complete, you must buy all separate parts and build it from scratch ,

OK-lets check the math on this.

Frame, 3.5 pounds

fork 1.5 pounds

bars 1.25 pounds

cranks+bb/gear 2 pounds

rims 2.2 pounds for the pair

that's over 10 pounds already!

tioga carbon saddle .5 pounds

chain over.5 pounds

tires s spec 1.5 pound for the pair

rear hub 1.25 pound

front hub .5 pounds

spokes 1 pound

seat post+clamp .25 pound

pedals+headset 1 pound

stem .5 pound

about 18.5 without brakes or grips

Of course I rounded to the nearest quarter pound but I think you'll find this to be pretty close. assuming you are using 16 oz or 454 grams= a pound

spokes weigh 1/4 oz or 7 grams each X 72spokes unless you spec Titanium which you should if you are going for ultimate light weight.

check out lightbikes.com

or weightweenies.com

rims are around 17 oz each-

The worlds lightest bicycle is 6 pounds. It can be seen at fairwheelbikes.com website and is estimated to cost $45,000.

I built a BMX micro for a 4 year old that weighs 6.5 pounds. It can be read about in May 2013 PULL magazine.
