How heavy is that bike? I've been curious about Stainless Steel bikes (like the Kabuki Submariner) and am daunted by the weight.

Way to stick with the centerpulls!

I'm not exactly sure how heavy it is. It's not the lightest bike I've ever laid sit-bones on, but it's far from being a beastly one.

I'm trying to find a place to weigh it, and I'll post its weight once I've found a place.

I still haven't found a scale I can use, but I'm guessing it's around 15 lbs. Maybe a little less, maybe a little more.
