front weight

You might remember a few months back I posted this front weight picture, which I determined was lead based. Some of you were correct in the conclusion that the weight as cast would not come off the rim due to the bolts being angled. I got a flat last weekend and finally used a gear puller to get the hub off. I was amazed at the weight of it so I put it on the scales and the tire, rim, hub and weight came in right at 150lbs!
