Plus One Lap used to be all about cyclocross, now it's my dumping grounds for anything cycling.

LightWeight Cyclocross Bike #10:Timo's Kinesis
Timo's got a 15.9 pound (7215 gram) cyclocross bike that he finally got some pictures of. A fairly stealth rig with some high end Euro boutique parts on including Lightweight carbon wheels.
This is the current specs list. I do not have separate weights for all parts:

I think Timo did a really nice job of picking a color scheme and sticking with it. The bike has a theme which I think leads to a nice overall visual package. Also, it kicks ass. Thanks Timo, good work!
