Define "heavy Riv". I do doubles and brevets on mine. I tend to use a minimalist approach, using a Camelback that has cords to tie stuff down if I need to lash clothes and stuff to it. On longer rides, I'll also use a banana bag with toe straps lace through those lash points on the top of the "lid". This allows me to tie down more stuff there-jackets, vests, etc.
At any rate, my 63cm Riv is probably around 23-34 pounds normally and maybe 25-26 pounds with the banana bag and some extra stuff. These are guesses, since I've never really weighed them. I'm 42 so do I count as old? Or am I just a know-nothing whippersnapper?
