First bike in 12 years

[Chamelion]

Used to ride a *little* around 2008-2010 on a giant alias... she went OK.

Dealing with cancer for the second time and I decided it was time to work on my health, so back into riding was my choice of physical activity.

Picked this gem up for $1700... a little more than my budget, but that's normal.

Welcome back to good health and bikes!

Great decision on the bike, should be a very capable machine with its choice upgrades.

Can you take the pedals off and weigh it please?

We won't know how good it is until we get the fudged weights in

I mean, I don't know the weight... but, it feels lighter than my wifes 15" fluid something or other hard tail.
