I was surprised to know mine will be that light! I read up a review and a bloke who owns one with mud guards groupset etc. is 22lbs so mine with singlespeed will weigh loads less than that, aiming for 17-19lbs max, and I also am using budget parts. (no carbon)

haha was all by luck really, got given frame fork headset and stem, then brought a create fixed for like £120 that was damaged and a unwanted gift on ebay took all the bits i needed (cranks, wheels, bars, break, chain,) sold the frame and forks to a mate for £60 so made that back then had the pedals and seat lieing around from my 24 inch build Smile was so chuffed to build it Smile

Wow, I like your hover bike, no wheels means no spokey dokeys though Frown

if it had bars i could easily do a hop whip

I think you should get the Guerciotti weighed as it is now (built), I wouldn't be surprised if it's under 20lbs as they have always made light frames.
