43 lbs is pretty heavy, actually. I had a carbon road bike that weighed just 16 pounds. granted it was a road bike, but i think 43 lbs sounds high. anyway, good luck with the sale. is the frame carbon or aluminum or boron...?

43lbs for a dedicated dirt bike is actually not bad considering the huge amount of suspension on it.

How much did you write on it? Also, was it sentences or paragraphs, I'd like to know what kind of miles have been put on it.

Good marrow Gentlemen! I was told by a colleague this is where one could locate a nice writting bicycle, and I see they were quite right. I do have a few small questions about said bicycle however, where did the writting take place? At a Starbucks restaurant? Was the writing prose or verse? What was the topic of the writting involving the bicycle? I look forward to your prompt reply regarding this matter, for I do long to purchase a new writting bicycle. I have many grand ideas, yet no bicycle to do my writting on. Alas, no worries, for I soon may gain a new writting bicycle of my very own. Goodday to you sirs!

Warmest Wishes,
Reganold
