Here's mine:

body fat: don't know
Wow, a light weight.OK here's me:

I'm asking, because I do feel like a flyweight in this forum. Most people here post stuff like "I'm looking for a bike or a fork etc., I'm 6'0 and 220-300lbs"
I was wondering if the average AM rider is heavier than the average XC guy, and lighter than the average DH/FR guy, or if it's all random.

6' 1"
190 lbs
Body fat: Yes

Most of my hardcore XC mates are racing whippets for sure, but when you get more into AM and DH/FR I find you tend to get more of a random mixture.

I thought it sounded like a logical question instead of the "Best AM Weight Plan".:D It can make an impact on bike and suspension choices depending on the rider's weight and size. BTW, I'm 6' 0" and weigh 190.

All legs and lung

6 feet + 0.5 inches tall and 150lb give or take. Body fat is low, but could be lower. I can pretty much eat & drink as much as I like during riding season. :thumbsup:
