Thanks for the hints. I've always liked the look and the feel of a steel bike.<br />
<br />
My semi old road bike is a bit on the heavy side but not so much as to be a burden.<br />

There was an IF frame on Ebay yesterday. I asked the seller a question or two and never got an answer before the auction ended. Depending on the answers, I was going to jump all over that frame.<br />

I would determine what is too heavy for you.<br />
<br />
I had a IF planet cross with DA10, steel fork, nothing on it carbon and not great wheels come in a 20lbs. I could have easliy taken off 3 pounds with high zoot wheels, carbon fork, and loads of carbon bits.<br />

IF does 853 like a champ!
