What size is the frame and what pedals are you getting?

XL frame. It comes with Look Keo 2 Max Carbon pedals - apparently weighing in at 244 grams for the pair. I am awaiting delivery of some Look Keo Blade Carbon Ti pedals, which will go on the bike at a svelte 180 grams, but lets assume that for weight purposes it will be with the Max Carbon pedals.

I'll go with 7.6kg

EDIT
hang on, will this be with or without pedals? the estimate I've given is with

This will be with Pedals, but they aren't that heavy so it ought not to make a big difference.

I reckon it'll be 6.3kg

6.29 kg

Insider information.

Insider information.

Mitigated by appalling memory though

Insider information.

Sounds like you know more than I do.

When do we get to know?

When do we get to know?

As soon as I know. I am hopeful that I should get the bike within the next few days, but I am slightly in the hands of the Italians and their speed of delivery to the UK.

Fairly sure their general election will have slowed things down, along with too much time being taken over lunch

 

[DCLane]

7.28kg.

For the weight weenies, my combined bike/me weight is under 80kg including pedals, bag, etc!

As you are such a weight weenie, I would have thought you would have had more then 2 Strava KOM's

Where's the 'Dislike' button when you need it

I had 5 last week, but someone took 3 off me for taking one of his.

It's all about power to weight ratio - even if the weight is low, you still need at least a little power
