I did some shopping on the GT today, would estimate the fishing bag at between 8-10kg. Was interested to see how it handled with a bit of a load. The fork I'm using is longer than standard and thus has relaxed the angles a bit, wasn't really sure what would happen once loaded.
Good news, handles fine. Very stable and doesn't feel particularly noodley.
Changed the 47 out for a 42 when I got home, felt a bit over geared.
If anyone's got a 42 campag 144bcd chainring kicking about let me know. The only 42s I have are quite worn.
