oh man does this thread ever bring back memories. I used to ride daily for years when I was a kid. I have owned a GT, Hutch, Mongoose a Direct Link (Limited Production Racing bike only 150 made) and a few other less mentionable.
The setup I had with the Hutch weighed 17 pounds and would have been lighter but I had a one piece crank and z-wheels which I could literally bend in half and they would spring right back into shape, super cool. I got those after breaking a few sets of aluminum rims, the only real set back was they were a bit heavier.
