I'm interested in a Saracen CR1 Jump Bike as a play bike, Cant find a spec list on the web that says its weight, I assume as its rigid/SS it'll be mid 25lbs ish, anyone have one? Whats it like? What other bikes are there in this style (ie bigger than a BMX, but basic)?

Cheers

Built one yesterday for the shop, good little bike and was surprised it didnt weight a tonne for being a cheapish steel frame. No idea on actual weight, but prob 27lbs ish comparing it to my steel xc bike. Decent quality freehub that didnt feel ovalised like most off the peg singlespeed jump bikes. Only thing was it felt really low at the front end, prob combination of not being used to 24" wheel and low rise bars.
