Whatcha think?

I think 4-4.5 lbs is typical for a steel frame, hell if I know on the fork.

cool. The Surly LHT is 5 lbs. Fork is 2 lbs. So it's not that much more than what you consider typical.

Thanks!

It really depends a lot on the size of the frame. I had a 20" steel XC frame and it was over 5 just becuase of the size.

That's 25% more.


A quality steel frame should be around 4 lbs.

I haven't looked at the geo, but see if the Soma Smoothie, or the Soma Smoothie ES will work. I like their stuff, and Julie's Smoothie is quality.
