    I have yet to weigh my bike. It’s probably in the 30lb range.

    Now I’m curious to see your 930!

        Absolutely loving the color and everything about it. Mine’s got the original 3x(22/32/42) 11-28. My use case is pretty much ATB which includes a lot of joyrides in the forest as well :)

          To be honest, I have a lot of time for front derailleurs even though they’re unfashionable, especially for those of us who already understand how to use them them. What’s not to like about having 2 or 3 ranges? Reach the a rise or hollow and just flip into a another range for the other side… Close ratios and range… and straight chainlines.

            Speaking of understanding how to use them. A coworker of mine leaves her 8spd rear derailleur in like 5th gear and only uses her 3x front derailleur to shift.

            I was quite baffled when she told me this but hey, it gets her to work and home.

              That’s almost exactly what it’s like riding a 3-speed. The ratio jumps are usually pretty similar.
