I'm still shocked at the weight of it. My SS has steel forks, was assembled from spares and is 2 kilos lighter.
Those rims probably weigh 4kg each!

OMG that bad!?Just seen one of these monstrosities parked up at the local supermarket
They're worse in the flesh than they appear in the catalogue
Definitely an FSO (fixie shaped object)
They look for all the world like a giant Fisher Price toy
A difference of a fex Kg is huge.Can't understand why people are making so much of its weight
Revolution Track from EBC (yeah, I know it's got brakes) is twice the price and is reported to weigh ~10.7kg
A Bianchi Pista reportedly weighs ~9.6kg, and would cost not far off five times the Argos catalogue bike

the pista is still a steel frame though, so the weight saving is quite a lot for a frame built out of similar properties
A real track bike, such as a felt tk2, weighs in at around 7.4kg
for such a cheap product you cant expect a lot .
It's made of Aluminium! Can anyone find a fixie made of Reynolds 953 so that we can make a valid weight comparison.
Not sure if it is 953, but definitely steel, the Pearson Hanzo at 9.6kg
I think if all the extra stuff (brakes, mudguards etc) were taken off then the Pearson would weigh about the same as this bike, which has a RRP of £1500.
