Yeti asr 7 as my only bike which as long term recovery (aka on and off) it has been a ‘road bike’/xc machine 160 mm forks Talas with 7 inch rear 2.4/2.3 combo never weighed less than 31 pounds with pedals curently 34 ish.
Great climber off road, compemsates for my inabilty to descend after 5 hrs wears me down but pedals really well and never fails to make me smile.
Neevr really got on with light bikes ie anything less than 25lbs i think it was a left over from 1990s bikes always been happier on 27 lbs plus.
As above inappropiate bike inappropiatley ridden with a lack of skill, speed or finesse but i am happy 😀
