I just thought it was funny that he said you need to get help if your bike looks like this, and shows a 4.9lb aluminum frame. The dropouts on that are a bit outdated, but that bike was at the top of it's game for a while, and still weighs less than a lot of frames on the market today. Also, metal (aluminum or magnesium) pedals generally are lighter than most plastics, and will last a thousand times longer. Oh, and sealed bearings weigh more than looseball. Yup, it's a fact. Looseball just have crap performance, and don't look anywhere near as clean. Things like titanium spindles are great if you're racing, bad if your street riding. What's the point of having the lightest bike if you're just going to break and snap everything?

you did a no-no. you took this video seriously. tsk tsk.

we-are-138 (Dec 4, 2010 at 19:01)

Nah, it's an obvious parody, but sometimes people get those wrong too. I thought it was good though.

true-biker-face (Dec 4, 2010 at 21:34)

thank you. I must say though. until you posted this, I had no idea the pork was aluminum.

There is a chromoly version, and it weighs about 6lbs.

nah seriously lmao im after a decent set off plastic green pedals Razz

true-biker-face (Dec 16, 2010 at 13:37)

odyssey twisted pc. good luck finding any though. the I-mac colorway was a limited run thing, and that run met its limit a while ago. you can get other pedals in trans green though, like animal hamiltons.

BmxBoyRyan91 (Dec 17, 2010 at 8:08)

yeah. good shit huh? and wtf is up with that helium crap. seems a bit ott to me.

louiscritchie (Oct 22, 2010 at 19:15)

YeH I read that! It makes sense, would add negative weight to you tires. It would be similar to filling racing car tires with nitrogen.

i enjoyed it

true-biker-face (Oct 21, 2010 at 22:29)

thanks! I enjoyed making it. I honestly am surprised anyone liked this vid. I just made it when I was home bored and unable to ride. just for shits and giggles I guess. its not very popular on youtube, everyone is so serious about it and gets butthurt when they see it. its almost funny to look through the comments. if you are ever bored, look it up and see what I mean.
