    Got her bike down to 26.94 lbs.

    I swapped her pedals out for my old TIME Atac's and snagged a used set of Elixir CR brakes off a local mtb forum. The brakes didn't drop much weight, but they perform a zillion times better (she can actually lock up her tires now).

    Just an FYI.... i'm probably going to sell this bike

    Our "plan" for riding together on Fridays didn't pan out like I expected and she only rode this bike twice. So as im sitting here thinking of ways to pay our vehicles off sooner to get rid of monthly payments, this is the first thing that popped in my head. I can always build another one later on when the kids are older and don't have double-daycare payments.

    It's a MEN's size Small. So works well for guys & gals.... i'd say 5'0" - 5'7". 5'8" you'll probably want a medium frame. (though for what i'd sell it for, it would be worth buying and swapping the components onto another frame lol)
