How much does your bike weigh?

[Gravity Aided]

11 kg for my old Cannondale H600,
but add bags, accessories and an 18 stone rider,
and it's a force to be reckoned with.
A gravitational force.

My Defy 1, with Campag Zonda's weighs exactly 8kg. That doesn't include the weight of people who have posted deliberately pointless answers above.

To be fair, the original poster doesn't come on here very mmuch any more, and folk always talk about bike weights in the polarised camp of " my bike weighs x kg" so it must be awesome, and the " it doesn't matter what it weighs as long as you enjoy riding it" camp. Just as the debate is settling down someone will come along and tell us weight is immaterial if the rider is a bit of a fat knacker and it all kicks off again.

So. My steel framed hardtail is 11.5 kg with dropper seatpost. My carbon 140/160 mm travel trail bike weighs 13. 6 also with dropper seapst and pedals, and my road bike weighs 8.6 kg. I enjoy riding them, AND I'm an old arthritic fat knacker. So were does that get us?

[QUOTE 3153814, member: 259"]That carbon is a waste of money. [/QUOTE]
Hardly. It's very, very stiff, and isn't the sort of carbon frame that is designed to be light. It does however perform brilliantly and is a thing of utter beauty. Ibis Mojo HD.

I was just being ironic with my post, as the second part falls within the deliberately pointless comment itself. Perhaps too subtle, but no offence was meant.

After doing away with a lot of non essential and essential components I'm left with a bike that weighs about 10 grammes. It's basically just a washer and a bit of dust but by god it's light.

Shamfer down the washer, you amateur

All bolts under stress have been replaced with aerospace grade titanium, and all bolts not under stress are now nylon.

Which bolts aren't stressed?

That's more like it.
I tend to weigh myself, then myself holding the bike and take away the difference

I got on a scale with my bike this morning and it weighs about 25kg. It must do. Otherwise I must weigh ..... kgs!! Nup, only explanation is my bike is really, really heavy.

Bianchi Vertigo 8.3Kg (owing to having some Zondas on)

Funnily enough my bike seems to have gained a few kgs lately too

 

[lesley_x]

Both bikes are 10kg dead on.

Newbie here...

Nearly enough. Took that on a 40 mile romp to Soton today. I've discovered a muscle in my leg that I never knew was there.
