This is rather cool. Jorge Espina - main distributor for Sparton USA - goes over some of the details of the Sparton frame. He also addresses a few questions/comments that have been floating around about the frames. I like that he briefly talks about the weight issue as I had mentioned below. They are a decent mid-weight bike, but they aren’t obese. To put it into perspective, the Schwinn Madison fully built minus pedals weighs in at a portly 21.8 lbs. The Sparton fully built is less than that.
