But what's the point on having a light adventure bike? You're not racing anyone so what if it does take 3 seconds more to go up a hill?
It’s more about how the bike feel than the weight, for some the sluggish feeling and slow handling felt like hard work.
I empathise, going for an Arkose give me a good balance of stiffness and stability, not fast but not a slouch.
